Getting the next order month

Hi, I have a sales table (see below) of all sales. I would like to figure out for each customer the next month they ordered but only for orders that have an order status of either 'processing' or 'complete', so for example in row 2, customer 2 next order is Apr 21 rather than Dec 20 because the Dec 20 order failed. If there is no new order,  I'd like to leave it blank. See column I for what I am looking for. Many thanks!

@Anonymous add a new column using following DAX code:

 

Next Order Date = 
VAR __table =  FILTER ( ALLEXCEPT( 'Order', 'Order'[Customer ID] ), 'Order'[Order Status] IN { "Processing", "Complete" } )
VAR __currentDate = 'Order'[Order Date] 
VAR __nextOrderDate = CALCULATE ( FIRSTDATE ( 'Order'[Order Date] ), __table, 'Order'[Order Date] > __currentDate )
RETURN __nextOrderDate
