Help Calendar Syncing

OK this is driving me nutzo... I have gone through all of the forums and have Googled this to death but can't solve this problem. My Google calendar syncs nicely to my Galaxy S5 so if I put some event on my Google calendar on my PC it shows up almost immediately on the phone. And if I manually add something on my phone it shows up on the calendar on the PC... here is the issue. The phone calendar talks to Outlook on my work PC and anything put into outlook calendar shows up on the phone, BUT those entries do not show up on the Google calendar. Am I doing something wrong or is it just not possible? I have tried just about everything... right now I am not using the Samsung calendar but have switched to the Google calendar but still the same behavior. Can anyone help?
 
I have not used Outlook, but the phone is an intermediary device and as you have done, you have linked Outlook to the phone.


What you need to do is sync Outlook to the Google Calendar in addition to your phone.


Sync services normally work from device to device directly, not thru an intermediary.

Device = app on phone or PC.


I am just now thinking that if the work PC is linked to Google calendar instead of the phone, that possibly will make it show up on the phone, as the phone is linked now to Google calendar. This would though, make Google calendar the intermediary.... but it just might work.
