Using the Hierarchy Grid: Searching both the parent and the child grid


Is it possible to use the search toolbar to search both the parent and child rows within a hierarchy grid.


For example, if you have a grid that shows the Sales People in the parent (Name, Employee Number, Address) and in the child you have the clients associated with the sales person. If I want to search for all the sales people who had the same client...could I type the client name in and get results).

Hi PDev, 

Greetings from Syncfusion support 

Based on your requirement, you want to perform search on child Grid using the parent search. 

By default, we have bound the child grid based on the parent grid data. So, we are unable to perform inner search (across each child grid) in Grid. 

For Example, If you search as “VINET” or something then we checked whether the value contains in parent first if it does not contain parent then we have shown “no records to display” message and it does not consider the child grid contain search value or not. 
 
Please get back to us if you need further assistance with this.
