Blueprint - 'On hold' state with an automatic transition?

Blueprint - 'On hold' state with an automatic transition?

I think I'm missing something here so I'm hoping if I explain what I'm trying to achieve someone might be able to give me a way around it.

We sometimes get request far in advance but we don't want to action them unless it is 7 days from when they are due.

Our custom module has a Due date on it.

1) I would like the blueprint to go into an On Hold state (ideally automatically, but it could be manually actioned by a user).

2) When the Due date is less than 7 day away - it would like the transition to automatically go to a 'Ready' state.

The way the transition dates all seem to work is if the state has not moved for longer than a period of time - but in this case, I don't know the period of time.

Is there a way or is this beyond Blueprints?

Thanks!

That works, however the form in the popup stays open (but blank so maybe reloads or resets). In one case it's even worse since it starts with a stateless form, which then opens a second form, both in popups. After submit, both popups stay open
