Even though every business has a different tolerance level on invoice dates, it means that the payment is in the hands of that company on the due date and that is the way you should plan to make payments. If the company just expected your payment to be "in the mail" (postmarked) on a certain date, the invoice would say that. The reason I say "tolerance level" is due to the number of businesses that have no problem ignoring due dates. I had a customer that always paid late because she said she only allotted time on a certain day of a certain week of each month to handle the bills and I would have to understand that. So I tolerated it because my other choice was not to ship her and I didn't want to give up that business.
