Hi,

Using the RadGrid in Batch Editing mode and the EditType is set to row.

I use pagination and to avoid to loose data when I navigate between pages, I save the data on the client in "sessionStorage" (See Attach file). 

I try to use the function "changeCellValue" in event "OnGridCreated" but it doesn't work.

Question: Which event schould I use to set the cells from grid with the values from the sessionStorage, please ? or should I use another method ?

Thank you

function GridCreated(sender, eventArgs) {
 
    var values = JSON.parse(sessionStorage.getItem("editedValues"));
    if (values) {
        var masterTable = sender.get_masterTableView();
        var batchEditingManager = sender.get_batchEditingManager();
        var rows = masterTable.get_dataItems();
        for (var i = 0; i < rows.length; i++) {
            var row = rows[i];
            var mandant = row.get_element().cells[0].innerHTML;
            for (var key in values) {
                var id = key.split("#");
                if (id[0] == mandant) {
                    var cell = row.get_cell(id[1]);
                    batchEditingManager.changeCellValue(cell, values[key]);
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

I solved the problem by moving the above code in a function and calling this function, still in the event "OnGridCreated", but as follows:

@Telerik Team: it is correct or do you recommend another method ?

function GridCreated(sender, eventArgs) {
    setTimeout(function () { LoadDataSessionStorage(sender, eventArgs); }, 10);
}
                   
function LoadDataSessionStorage(sender, args) {
    var values = JSON.parse(sessionStorage.getItem("editedValues"));
    if (values) {
        var masterTable = sender.get_masterTableView();
        var rows = masterTable.get_dataItems();
        var batchEditingManager = sender.get_batchEditingManager();
        var row = null;
        var mandant = null;
        var id = null;
        var cell = null;
        for (var i = 0; i < rows.length; i++) {
            row = rows[i];
            mandant = row.get_element().cells[0].innerHTML;
            for (var key in values) {
                id = key.split("#");
                if (id[0] == mandant) {
                    cell = row.get_cell(id[1]);
                    batchEditingManager.changeCellValue(cell, values[key]);
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Now, I'm facing another problem: when I edit several pages and I click on the button "OK" outside the grid, the "batchEditingManager" contains only the values from the current page. My question is: Is there a client-side function to add values to the "batchEditingManager" ?

Thank you

Sebastien

Hi Sébastien,

It is not possible to pass changes from other pages through the built-in functionality of the Batch editing, because each change will contain the index of the item on the current page. The only thing that I could suggest is to set the changes that you are storing in a HiddenField for example and initiate the saving through external button. On server-side you can deserialize the values and perform manual updates.

I would personally recommend that you force the end user to save the changes before performing any data operation (like paging, filtering, sorting, etc.).
