Setting the Same Renewal Day for Yearly/Monthly Resources

If the file systems have different expiry dates, you can set the same renewal day, for example, the first day of each month, to make it easier to manage renewals.

In Figure 6, a user sets the same renewal day for two resources that will expire at different dates.
