Data entry and management

Streamline data entry and record management with support for adding, editing, and deleting records. Use custom editors, validation rules, and confirmation dialogs to ensure accurate and reliable data updates. Editing requires a primary key column in the Data Grid.

Inline editing in the React Grid.

Full row editing

Inline editing allows multiple fields in a record to be updated directly within the Data Grid while related information remains visible. Direct editing within the grid is suitable when related data needs to be reviewed and changed together.

Cell editing in the React Grid.

Update individual cell value

In batch mode, cell editing allows individual values to be updated directly within the Data Grid without opening the entire row for editing. Direct cell updates are suitable when only selected values need correction while the remaining record stays unchanged.

Dialog form editing in the React Grid.

Form-based editing

Dialog editing gives users a structured modal interface to add and update records through forms with built-in validation. The modal editing view is suitable when records contain many fields or require focused data entry.

Batch editing in the React Grid.

Perform bulk updates

Batch editing allows multiple cell and row changes to remain pending until they are saved together. Combined updates are useful when changes across multiple records need to be reviewed and saved together.

Command column edit in the React Grid.

Access row actions

Command columns provide edit, save, delete, and cancel actions directly within each row. Row-level action controls are suitable when records need to be reviewed and updated individually.

Validation in the React Data Grid.

Validate data before saving

Validation checks entered values against required fields, accepted formats, value ranges, and custom rules before records are saved. Pre-save checks are suitable when data accuracy needs to be confirmed before record changes are accepted.

Formula cell in the React Data Grid.

Spreadsheet-like calculations

Perform spreadsheet-like calculations in Data Grid cells using formulas, cell references, and built-in functions. Calculated values update when referenced data changes within the grid.

The best tool to operate grid-like data out there

Good documentation helps you with everything you need to know. What I like the most is that it takes you from configuration to usage. I have mainly used grid and toolbar options along with dashboard.
