I am trying to create a calendar and I'm trying to add the PersonExamination as calendar to view all the records with an examination date. However it doesn't show as an option. Is there a way or is it not supported yet as of 2026?
In Salesforce, object-based calendars can be created from the Calendar tab by selecting New Calendar and choosing an object along with a date or date-time field (such as a start date and end date). However, only objects that contain supported Date or Date/Time fields and are available for calendar views will appear in the object selection list. ()
If PersonExamination is not appearing as an option when creating a calendar, it is usually due to one of the following reasons:
- Date Field Requirement - The object must have at least one Date or Date/Time field that Salesforce can use as the calendar event start (and optionally end) date. If the object doesn’t have a suitable field, it won’t appear in the calendar object list.
- Object Permissions - Ensure your profile or permission set has Read access to the PersonExamination object and its date fields.
- Object Support for Calendar Views - Some standard or managed-package objects are not supported for object-based calendars, depending on how they are configured. If PersonExamination is part of a managed package or specific Salesforce cloud feature, it may not yet be supported in calendar views.
- Possible Workaround - If the object cannot be used directly in a calendar view, a common workaround is to create a Flow or automation that generates Event records based on the examination date field so that they appear in the standard Salesforce calendar.
If the object still doesn’t appear after confirming the above, it is likely that PersonExamination is currently not supported for object-based calendars in the standard UI.
