Issues in kendo hierarchical grid

[Thirumurthi]

   I am using  kendo hierarchical grid.  Both parent and child grid rows are editable.  ( Sample : http://jsfiddle.net/hAsE3/2/  )
Here  with I have list out some requirement and issues.

1. How to access parent (master grid) row details from detail grid column.
  E.g: To get primary key value of the master grid row from child row.

2. Not able add new record in a Child grid when apply filter as,
      filter: [{
            "logic": "or",
                "filters": [{
                field: "EmployeeID",
                operator: "eq",
                value: e.data.EmployeeID
            }]
        }]

3. How to get the child grid datasource from Hierarchical grid.



Thanks and Regards,

Hi Thirumurthi,

Regarding your questions:

1. The parent item is available in the detailInit event. In case you need to obtain it at a later point, you have to find the master row element /closest(".k-master-row")/, get its uid /masterRow.data("uid")/ and use the getByUid method of the DataSource to retrieve the dataItem. 
2. In this forum post, you will find an explanation why this behaviour occurs and what are the possible workarounds. Please check it and let me know if you have any further questions.
3. Through the dataSource field of the Grid widget. Note that the template is rendered multiple times, you cannot use the same ID each time as it will result in having invalid HTML.
   

   $("<div id='detgrd'/>").appendTo(e.detailCell).kendoGrid({

   
   You should either generate a different ID each time a new detail is initialized or select the Grid by class (k-grid).

I hope this will help.
