Hi Team,

I am trying to make the table editable as per the client’s requirements. I have set `editable = True` for the column **“order”** , but I am still unable to edit it in the view.

props.data is bind with query.

Could someone help me fix this issue and also guide me on how to enable editing for the other columns?

Thank you in advance.

The field name must match your column name (it’s case sensitive). Based on your screenshot, assuming you have no header configured, the column is named **Order** and that’s what you should have in the field.

When you click on a Order column field it’s not showing a cursor to edit?

You’ll have to share about your setup for anyone to help. To start, how many columns do you have defined in columns? Your source data has 36 columns - maybe you accidentally configured too many ‘order’ fields in props.columns.

Post a cropped screengrab of the dataset including the headers. Make sure it shows the `order` column.

I have recreated the table, and it is now working correctly. I’m not exactly sure what was missing before, but simply enabling the **editable** property resolved the issue.

Thanks a lot to everyone for your support!
