Binding sap.m.Table Odata data dynamically after user changes table values in UI

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a problem and need your help in solving the same. I am a newbie in SAPUI5

I am creating a Master/Detail SAP UI5 application which displays list of Articles on left Master page and Variants on Detail page. The implementation is similar to EPM_OIA_BPOENINV example, SAP provided in 740, creating object of Shell to hold both Master and Detail XML views.

I created two entity sets, ARTICLEINFOSET and VARIANTINFOSET and maintained navigation between them. It's working perfectly fine, with 2 Odata services including BATCH operations to save the data.

The Model is set to SAP.UI.GETCORE() by passing url to Model object:

    var url = model.Config.getServiceUrl();

    m = new sap.ui.model.odata.ODataModel(url, true);

    sap.ui.getCore().setModel(m);

So all Odata requests are now binded to this level.

In the Master view, I defined sap.m.List with "items" attribute pointing to "{path : '/ARTICLEINFOSET'}". This calls OData service and fetches the Articles and binds to the List.

In Detail view, I defined sap.m.Table with with "items" attribute pointing to "{path : '/VARIANTINFOSET'}". This calls OData service and fetches the Variants, for the corresponding Article selected in the left navigation and binds to the List.

Now, the problem, I have a custom button declared in Detail Footer section which on clicking, gives a Mass Update pop-up, which on entering a value, the corresponding data should be updated back to Sales Order Item Quantity field in all rows. And here I am stuck. I am not getting clue on how to update data which is bound to the table.

As mentioned, all my data getting displayed in the view is present in Model, which is bound at application level.I don't have explicit Table declarations in javascript.

Model's Default Binding Mode is "OneWay". "TwoWay" is not working.It's only updating first row and then binding for next rows, it's showing getAggregation is NULL. So I need to do this change only by "OneWay".

Request you all to guide me in solving this issue.

is using v2 ODataModel an option?

If not, the only way IMHO is to copy values to JsonModel and copy back when submitting

We are using ODataModel to read the information from SAP backend and bind the same in UI.

I tried the other way too, but unable to display any data..

what`s sapui5 version? above 1.28?

[Former Member]

Yes, we are on 1.30.6.

switch to

sap.ui.model.odata.v2.ODataModel

set two way binding, and when you wanna submit changes to server just call submitChanges

Did the same. Changed to v2 model. and set TwoWay binding. But I want to know how to update the changes from the pop up value to Odata model's table items.

With V2 Odata model as well, I am able to SAVE the changes by using submitChanges(). But still not able to change the UI table column values. Here is the code for Mass Update functionality. With TwoWay, it's updating first row and then displaying getAggregation is NULL:

It's updating Model.OData bindings but not the table aggregations

Any info on how to update the aggregations.

When I try to update using the below code, it's updating first record and then saying, getAggregation is NULL for second iteration:

aItems[i].getAggregation("cells")[3].setProperty("value", newtgtstk);

To do the UI changes to the table, I used oTable.getModel().updateBindings(); and now the UI is updated with new values, as I am doing changes to the Odata data in the Model.

But with this, now Model.submitChanges stopped working, as I think, Bindings had been updated with above statement and Model is not able to recognize any changes done.

So I switched back to V1 Odata Model and started using "createBatchOperation" and "submitBatch" to manually tell Model to update the changes even after bindings were updated.
