Import into Grid

HTML users can import data into a grid containing embedded combo boxes just as they can into a grid without the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne grid import/export feature. When a user does so, the value being imported into the embedded combo box must be the Key parameter value that corresponds to a valid combo box key/item (description) pair.

If the target cell resides in a grid column that has a data dictionary item with an associated UDC, then runtime creates an embedded combo box in the target cell and loads the UDC-defined key/item pairs into it. Next, runtime attempts to match the imported key to one of the currently loaded keys. If it finds a match, runtime sets it as the currently-selected item in the cell. Otherwise, it ignores the item and sets the cell to the -- Select One -- value.

If the target cell resides in a grid column that does not have a data dictionary item with an associated UDC, then runtime creates an embedded combo box with one item set as selected having a Key parameter of (blank) and an Item (description) parameter of Uninitialized. Then runtime disables the cell.
