Hey ​@cpospisil what is your current database architecture?
Do you currently have one table for Inbound and one table for Outbound?

1. I would highly suggest you have Inbound and Outbound records on the same table, and just have a Type field (single select) with options Inbound or Outbound.
2. If you use only one table, then you can show all records under one Calendar view.

If you want to keep these in two different tables, you can still sync those tables/calendar views to your Google calendar and have all records shown under one same calendar.

I might be getting this completely wrong though, and it might be the case that each record of yours (under one table) has two date fields? If so, what does each of Inbound Date and Outbound Date mean exactly under your use case?

Alternatively, you can use the Master Calendar extension by ​@Kamille_Parks11, which displays events from multiple tables all in one calendar.

Note that extensions can not currently be used in interfaces — they can only be used in the data layer.

Hope this helps!

If you’re on a paid plan you can use an additional date field and it’d look like this:
