Hello
Only manually you can add it
open application/Espo/Modules/Crm/Resources/metadata/entityDefs/Call.json, copy duration field defs, and paste it in own entityDefs. Check 'start' and end 'options', fix select option

Thanks for your answer, it is not good solution for my task.
I need simple time field, like a currency field with "min" text after value of this.

In general, duration is notStorable field.

Please tell us, between which fields you want to calculate the duration. Also the unit: minutes, hours?

“Hi, and thanks for your support.
I’ve managed to add the duration field, but I’d like the calendar to treat this entity the same way it handles calls and meetings.
Is there anything specific I need to configure to make it appear as a timed event instead of an all-day item?”
