Can I specify a Date for a Cutoff step in a Record Retention schedule

I can specify X number of days, months, years, and so on for a time period before I cutoff a record in Alfresco Records Management.  We have a cutoff date that is a fixed point in the future for a kind of record, like 12/31/2025, regardless of when the record is declared.  Is there a way to specify that?

Some ways I think we COULD do it are:

 - Create a custom event, and have a job complete the events of all the records that are affected on the set date

 - Do something with a rule on the category that resets all newly 'created' retention dates 

Are there other ways to approach this?

We are using RM 2.7 and Alfresco 5.2.4.

Thanks!

Dan

Could somebody answer this question, please?  It is now 2024 and we need to do the same thing.

Dan, did you figure something out on your own that worked well? If you get this message, please share.
