Schedule a task 'X' number of days (or hours) after the workflow is started

I'm new to Orchestrator so please forgive my ignorance...

I'm building a workflow that allows our users to create their own snapshots.  We have a policy that snapshots can only be kept for a maximum of 3 days.  My inputs would allow the user to select the number of days (I'm cool with using hours if it's easier) until the snapshot is automatically committed.  How would I accomplish this?  Is there a method to take the current date/time (at the time the workflow is run) and add X days (or hours) to schedule a task that commits the snapshot?

Alternatively, is there a way to present a calendar and only allow them to select up to 3 days from the current date?

Thanks for any contributions

Thanks Burke!  I cannot find where I can delete this post.  New to the forums and trying to muddle my way around.  Duplicate post because I put this one in the wrong forum.
