2 year wait vs Batch Report

[Alon Raskin]

Hi Everyone,
 
I would love to hear peoples opinions on this issue.
 
We have a situation where a workflow has to do update a field and then wait for 2 years before clearing that field. There are two possibilities to this issue.
 
1. Put in a 2 year wait step
2. Terminate the workflow and run a nightly batch job which would query some table and determine if 2 years have passed and then reset the field accordingly.
 
Currently I am leaning towards option 1 as I really don't see a difference in option 1 and option 2. Ultimately they are all just batch jobs which check dates and then do some processing. The volumes here are very low.
 
Your thoughts?
