I have a grid that I'm trying to enable inline editing.  Whenever I attempt to update a row error is thrown in the console.  I've tried moving the editor into a separate editor with no luck.  I removed the configuration column so there was just the Room displayName and the same thing happens so it is not an issue with the Multi-Select.

I am currently using Kendo UI v2021.1.330

In Chrome the error happens when the edit control loses focus and is

kendo.all.js:6566 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'data')
    at init.setup (kendo.all.js:6566:106)
    at init.create (kendo.all.js:6540:34)

    at init.d (jquery.min.js:2:3873)
    at init.trigger (kendo.all.js:164:37)

In Firefox the error happens when clicking update and is
