Hi community,

We are building a short-term loan product (similar to salary advances), and
need to support *fixed EMI dates* like the 5th or 15th of each month. If a
customer takes a loan on, say, the 26th of a month, we want the *first EMI
to start on the next 15th*, not exactly 30 days later.

This creates a *broken period interest* scenario where we need to:

   -

   Adjust interest for the first (partial) period (e.g., 19 days).
   -

   Ensure EMI dates remain fixed regardless of disbursement.

I’ve explored:

   -

   graceOnPrincipalPayment
   -

   graceOnInterestPayment
   -

   repaymentEvery / repaymentFrequencyType
   -

   expectedFirstRepaymentDate (throws validation error in Apache Fineract
   1.8+)

But haven't found a consistent way to implement this behavior in recent
Apache Fineract versions.

📌 *Questions*: Is there an officially supported way to set a *fixed first
repayment date*?

Any guidance or suggestions from the community would be appreciated!


Thanks,
Ieesh Tyagi
