Via Settings > Projects > Hour Types you can select a color for each time type:
Think carefully about which color you assign to each time type. These colors will appear in both the calendar view and the planning view. A common method is to use one color for internal hours and another for external hours. This way, you can immediately see the distribution between internal and external hours at a glance.
Display of External Calendar Items in the Calendar
When using the Two-way Calendar Integration, you will also see calendar items in the Simplicate calendar that were forwarded from an external calendar (for example, an Outlook or Google Calendar). These external calendar items will clearly differ from the Simplicate calendar items. The External Calendar Items will appear as light gray blocks in the Simplicate Calendar.
Once these external calendar items are linked to a Simplicate project, service, and time type, they will adopt the color associated with the time type.
