Ricardo - Dan's suggestion of using script will definitely get you setup in the way that you're suggesting. I would still caution against it, however, unless you're going to use additional script to automatically generate child records based on those fields. If you're using multiple fields on a table to identify date-based information, such as Billables / Deliverables, think about this - how are you going to report on these numbers in the future? How, for instance, would you easily produce a report that shows the Total Billables to Date? What if you wanted to know the Average Billable for June? If you utilize QuickBase as what amounts to a glorified spreadsheet, you are not using it to it's fullest extent and can get practically the same functionality from something like Google Sheets or similar services. What you're proposing may be a time saver in the short term, but it will very probably end up unusable.
