Hi,

Since the Kendo UI Grid hierarchy has alternating detail and master rows, when the edit happens within the detail grid, access the parent row with the following jQuery selector:

$(element).closest("tr.k-detail-cell").prev("tr.k-master-row")

After accessing the master row in the parent grid, obtain the data item via the following method:

The properties of the data item can be changed with the help of the set() method:

It would be helpful if you could share the whole scenario that you are willing to achieve so that I can provide more accurate suggestions.

 

Kind regards,
