Instructions
The disposition date calculator will calculate the Retire Date and Final Disposition Date for your files. The calculator looks like your disposition label. Before you can use the calculator, you must have your disposition label. To learn about disposition labels and where to find them, read the Disposition Labels Guidance.
Enter the Close Date in the calculator according to the closure trigger printed on your disposition label. You may select the month and day from the drop-down fields using your mouse or your keyboard's up and down arrows, and type the 4-digit year in the year field; or you may click on the calendar icon
to select the date.
Select the Retire Date Formula and the Final Disposition Date Formula, exactly as they are printed on your disposition label, from the choices in the drop-down fields.
Select the Final Disposition Action, exactly as it is printed on your disposition label, by clicking with the mouse or pressing your keyboard's space bar.
Click on the Calculate button, or tab to the Calculate button and press Enter.
The calculated disposition dates will appear in the Retire Date and Final Disposition Date fields. Place these dates, and the Close Date, on your disposition label.
