Your calendar displays all events that you own in Salesforce on the My Events Calendar. Calendars that you create from a Salesforce object display data in date fields as calendar items. View, create, and edit your events in a day, week, or month view. You can also see any calendars shared by colleagues that you’ve added to your view.
