formula in property test step

Hi,

I would like to have a date formula in a property test step that gets date from another property and adds extra days to it. I know I can do this easily in groovy, but I am wondering if this is possible via "formula" in property. Here is my example to illustrate the issue...

I have a property test step with 3 properties:

dateFormula = ${=new Date().plus(7).format( 'yyyy-MM-dd' )}T08:00:00
dateFromString= ${= Date.parse("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss", "2019-12-13T08:15:00").plus(7).format("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss")}
dateFromString2 = ${= Date.parse("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss", ${Properties#dateFormula}).format("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss")}

dateFromString has a hard coded date. dateFromString2 should the date from dateFormula property. 

Then I have a groovy script that just prints them:

log.info context.expand( '${Properties#dateFormula}' )
log.info context.expand( '${Properties#dateFromString}' )
log.info context.expand( '${Properties#dateFromString2}' )

This is the output (log.info):

What am I doing wrong in formula of dataFromString2? How can I resolve this issue?

Thanks in advance!
