Season's Greetings everyone!

Does anyone know how BMW determines what production month will be on the VIN plate on the driver's door jamb?

For instance my previous E60 530i completed production on 10/29/03 and the VIN Plate says 11/03.

If it was completed on 10/15/03 or earlier would the plate say 10/03?

I'm just curious as to how BMW rounds it off!

To answer my own question, i believe it depends on what week # your car is assigned to.
