Not able to pass data from Telerik Grid in Submit form.

[Andi]

Hello Telerik and other developers,

I am facing an issue with submitting a grid within a form in dotnet core 6.

I followed the example from github but data does not pass from the grid form to the view.

The rest of the values from the form do pass, except the values from the grid.

 

I appreciate any help. Thank you.

 

 

<form asp-action="CreatePO" id="PorequestForm" name="PorequestForm"><div asp-validation-summary="ModelOnly" class="text-danger"></div><fieldset><legend>Materials</legend>

        @*@Html.LabelFor(category => category.Justification)
        @Html.EditorFor(category => category.Justification)*@

        @(
            Html.Kendo().Grid(Model.POMaterials)
                .Name("PoMaterial")
                .ToolBar(tools => tools.Create().Text("Add PO Materials"))
                .Editable(editable => editable.Mode(GridEditMode.InCell).CreateAt(GridInsertRowPosition.Bottom))
                .Columns(columns =>
                {
                columns.Bound(p => p.ItemNumber).ClientTemplate("#= ItemNumber #" +
                "<input type='hidden' name='POMaterial[#= index(data)#].ItemNumber' value='#= ItemNumber #' />"
                );
 
                columns.Bound(p => p.Description).ClientTemplate("#= Description #" +
                "<input type='hidden' name='POMaterial[#= index(data)#].Description' value='#= Description #' />"
                );
               
                columns.Bound(p => p.Amount).ClientTemplate("#= Amount #" +
                "<input type='hidden' name='POMaterial[#= index(data)#].Amount' value='#= Amount #'/>"
                );
                
                columns.Bound(p => p.UnitCost).ClientTemplate("#= UnitCost #" +
                "<input type='hidden' name='POMaterial[#= index(data)#].UnitCost' value='#= UnitCost #' />"
                );

                columns.Bound(p => p.PomaterialId).Hidden().ClientTemplate("#= PomaterialId #" +
                "<input type='hidden' name='POMaterial[#= index(data)#].PomaterialId' value='#= PomaterialId #' />"
                );

                columns.Command(command => command.Destroy()).Width(100);
            })
            .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource.Ajax()
            .Model(model =>
            {
                model.Id(p => p.PomaterialId);
                model.Field(p => p.PomaterialId).Editable(false);
            })
            .Batch(true)
            //.Read(read => read.Action("ReadPoRequest", "Grid"))
            //.Create(create => create.Action("AddPORequest", "Grid"))
            .ServerOperation(false)
            )
            )
    </fieldset>

 

</form>

<script>
    function index(dataItem) {
        var data = $("#PoMaterial").data("kendoGrid").dataSource.data();

        return data.indexOf(dataItem);
    }
</script>

Hello Andi,

Thank you for the code snippet and the details provided.

In order to achieve the desired behavior, I would recommend using the approach from the following article:

• https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/knowledge-base/grid-submit-with-form

Here is a dojo example:

Furthermore, the following code library provides a sample project with MVC syntax for the case:

I hope this information helps.
