KendoUI - Uncaught ReferenceError when creating a new row.

[Chris]

Hi,

I get the error "Uncaught ReferenceError: Customer is not defined" when i try and create a new row on the grid. It will display the data correctly.

My grid is defined like this ...

@(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model)

    .Name("OrderGrid")

    .Columns(columns =>

    {

        columns.Bound(o => o.OrderId).Title("Order Id");

        columns.Bound(o => o.Customer.CustomerName).Title("Customer Name");

        columns.Bound(o => o.AccountManager).Title("AccountManager");

        columns.Command(command => { command.Destroy(); command.Edit(); });

    })

    .Pageable()

    .Editable(editable => editable.Mode(GridEditMode.PopUp))

    .ToolBar(commands => commands.Create().Text("New Order"))

    .Filterable()

    .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource

        .Ajax()

        .Model(model => model.Id(o => o.OrderId))

        .Events(events => events.Error("error"))

        .Create(create => create.Action("Orders_Create", "Order"))

        .Read(read => read.Action("Orders_Read", "Order"))

        .Update(update => update.Action("Orders_Update", "Order"))

        .Destroy(destroy => destroy.Action("Orders_Destroy", "Order"))

    )

)

And my models are like this...

public class Order

    {

        public int OrderId { get; set; }

        public int CustomerId { get; set; }

        public string AccountManager { get; set; }

        public Customer Customer { get; set; }

    }

 

public class Customer

    {

        public int CustomerId { get; set; }

        [Required]

        public string CustomerName { get; set; }

        [Required]

        public string Address1 { get; set; }

        public string Address2 { get; set; }

        public string Address3 { get; set; }

        public string City { get; set; }

        public string County { get; set; }

        [Required]

        public string Postcode { get; set; }

 

        private ICollection<Order> Orders { get; set; }

    }

I guess this is because CustomerName is stored in a different table, but I can't figure out why. Any help would be great, I am so lost on this one.

Thanks,
Chris

I am away from my main PC.

But would changing

columns.Bound(o => o.Customer.CustomerName).Title("Customer Name");

to

columns.Bound(o => o.Customer).ClientTemplate("#=Customer.CustomerName#");

help at all?

Just an idea!

Thanks
Chris
