Editable Data Grid

Editable Data Grid is a table, that shows data from QPR Suite Web Service, and the data can also be edited. QPR Suite Web Service properties define which kind of data can be edited. Mainly QPR Metrics, QPR Portal action forms and QPR Suite user management data can be edited, but not QPR ProcessDesigner or QPR EnterpriceArchitect.

Data shown in the data grid is fetched using QPR Suite Web Service query, where each row is linked to one object and each column is linked to an attribute in the Web Service.

Note that, the editable data grid does not use datasets to fetch data.

Property	Description
additionalAttributes	List of attributes and values that are saved to the object when it's created. Can be used to define a fixed parent object id for all created objects. Defined as a JSON object where the property name is the attribute name, and property value is the attribute value. Example: "additionalAttributes": { "attribute1": "value1", "attribute2": "value2" }
selectedRowVariable	Local context variable where currently selected row's object id of stored. Note that the selected row doesn't change, when the context variable is changed from somewhere else.
query	Query parameter for the QPR Suite Web Service query to get the rows to the editable data grid. More information: http://kb.qpr.com/qpr2017-1/index.html?queryobjects.htm.
sortby	Sorting parameter for the QPR Suite Web Service query to get the rows to the editable data grid.
queryOptions	Options parameter for the QPR Suite Web Service query to get the rows to the editable data grid.
parentAttribute	Attribute name that is used as parent object when creating new objects to QPR Suite. The referenced parent attribute must exist either in the defined columns or in the additionalAttributes. The first case is better when user needs to select the parent from multiple options, and the latter is better when there is a fixed parent for all the created objects.
createOptions	Options parameter for the QPR Suite Web Service CreateObject operation (http://kb.qpr.com/qpr2017-1/index.html?createobject2.htm), that is used every time a new row is created that is not based on a template object.
