    How an event module records are coming in Calender

    I have created an event module and added a few records. Some are showing in the calendar, while others are not. I tried adjusting the start and end dates, but I still cannot understand the criteria for displaying events in Calendar. Can anyone please explain?

    1. To be displayed in EspoCRM Calendar, an entity with the Event type must be added in Administration > Settings > Genegal > Activities > Calendar Entity List.

    2. For an event to be displayed in the Calendar of at least one User, there must be at least one User (for example, User A) in this event in Attendees > Users.

    3. Based on the previous point, you can additionally specify a team in this event, and then, users who are members of this team can create a Shared Calendar (each must create one for themselves) and then they will see the entry of User A, who is the only Attendee in the event, but added a team. More about Shared Calendar: https://forum.espocrm.com/forum/gene...213#post115213.

    You can also provide a specific example with screenshots and a detailed description so I can explain why the problematic event may not be displayed in someone's EspoCRM Calendar.​

      victor, Please find the attached screenshots. Additionally, when I click on the calendar, I can see the options to create these events, but the Query module is not displaying them. Then the default Meeting module only shows attendees in the Side Panels (Detail), so I am not able to see the user in the attendees list of the other events module.

        victor, For me, I don't need attendees. My objective is to display these events in the calendar so that users can see them on the dashboard and follow up. I don't require any attendees; I just want the records to be visible in the calendar as soon as they're created. Since I don't have separate start and end dates, I wrote the formula "dateStart = dateEnd;" to schedule the same. And End date will be the date is showing in the calendar.

          Ashif Malayil,

          Don't pay attention to Attendees (the example was simply based on the Meeting system entity), but pay attention to Users (starting with EspoCRM 9+, it has become easy to add Assigned Users).

          I don't require any attendees; I just want the records to be visible in the calendar as soon as they're created.
          So, in this event, Assigned User must be specified. To have this field filled in automatically when created, for each required user, check the box in his Preferences > User_name > Do not fill Assigned User if not required. In this case, the User who creates the record will be the Assigned User of the created record by default.
