take a look at that post, it shows you how to attach a custom javascript file, with this you can manipulate things on the fly. Take a look how is done in the meetings module as a reference https://github.com/salesagility/SuiteCRM/tree/master/modules/Meetings

best regards

Thanks mikebeck.

I found another solution to update.

$('#date_exit_trigger').click(function(){
			Calendar.setup ({					
				inputField : "date_exit",
				form : "EditView",					
				ifFormat : "%m/%d/%Y %H:%M",
				daFormat : "%m/%d/%Y %H:%M",					
				button : "date_exit_trigger",
				singleClick : true,
				//dateStr : "11/07/2016",
				startWeekday: 0,
				step : 1,
				weekNumbers:false,
				onUpdate: dateChanged	
				}); 
				
		}); 

	function dateChanged(){
		var exitdate=$('#date_exit').val();			
		var newdate = new Date(exitdate);
		var actualdate = newdate.setDate(newdate.getDate()+30);
		actualdate = new Date(actualdate);
		var duedate = (actualdate.getMonth()+1)+"/"+actualdate.getDate()+"/"+(actualdate.getFullYear());
		$('#due_date').val(duedate);			
	}
