You have many options here. One is, to store the primary keys of modified rows to a local. Add a a!save() to each field editable in a row. In the submit button, copy all modified rows to a rule input or write them directly back to the DB.

Hi,

I have tried the same approach problem is once you show the data in editable grid then you can't show the edited value again and then reassign to rule input. As that cell is still referring to that local variable which is getting data from db tbl.

There are few things to consider,

1. How big is the data coming from the excel sheet as read excel plugin costs your system to slow down.

2. Are you showing all the columns in the excel sheet , is the rows are empty or columns are empty.

what i did is

1. Created a temporary table and inserted the data into the temporary table from the excel sheet using import Excel to database plugin (might need to see in APp market). THis imports the data into the DB in seconds.

2. Then read the data from that table and show it in the editable grid. where you might have the primary keys associated with it.

3. edit them accordingly and push to the main table. Flush the temporary table if needed.

Let me know if this helps.
