I’m using onCellEdited function to write power table dataset back to database.It works perfectly fine if i change value edited cell directly, but when I edit cells by scripting (from another component), onCellEdit function doesn’t get invoke.

Is there any other way to do same?

Your other scripts should write directly to the DB, then use system.db.refresh to update your table.
