Hello, happy new year everyone.
I once again appear before you requesting your support.
I keep learning from Power Bi. however, I consider that some issues are still outside my capabilities, such as the following:
from the attached database, I should find the following:
1) Customers: the number of customers who made a purchase within that period of time.
2) New customers: the number of customers who made their first purchase within that time period.
3) Returning customers: the number of customers who have already bought something in the past and who return in that period of time.
4) Lost customers: the number of customers whose last purchase occurred at least 2 months before the start of the current period.
5) Recovered Customers: The number of customers who were considered lost in a previous time period and then made a purchase
in the current period.
and present a graph like the following one for each class or type of client, filtered by category or brand.

Thank you in advance for your time, and for sharing your knowledge.
Hello,
Thank you very much for answering
@MattAllington and @amitchandak
Although the answers are well structured, I have a doubt; in my data there is the field: possible days of next purchase.
From the date of purchase + possible days of next purchase, I must classify the clients and their status (new, lost, etc.)
@carlosmorales , refer to my two blogs that cover this topic. Hope that can help
