<h1>Saving multiple records via Model::saveMany()</h1> <p>You don't have to manually loop over your data, CakePHP models are able to handle all this automatically, as long as you create your forms according to the CakePHP conventions</p> <h2>Creating the right Form-inputs via the FormHelper</h2> <p>For this to work correctly, your posted data should be according to the CakePHP conventions;</p> <p>For example: create your form-inputs like this:</p> <pre><code>echo $this->Form->input('Breakdown.1.field1'); echo $this->Form->input('Breakdown.1.field2'); // .... echo $this->Form->input('Breakdown.99.field1'); echo $this->Form->input('Breakdown.99.field2'); </code></pre> <p>Which, when debugging the posted data inside the controller, should look like this:</p> <pre><code>debug($this->request->data); array( 'Breakdown' => array( (int) 1 => array( 'field1' => 'value of field1 in row 1', 'field2' => 'value of field2 in row 1' ), (int) 2 => array( 'field1' => 'value of field1 in row 2', 'field2' => 'value of field2 in row 2' ) ) ) </code></pre> <h2>Saving the data - Controller code</h2> <p>Then, inside your controller:</p> <pre><code>public function qty_breakdown() { $this->layout = 'common'; if ($this->request->is('post') && !empty($this->data['Breakdown'])) { if ($this->Breakdown->saveMany($this->data['Breakdown'])) { $this->Session->setFlash( 'Quantity Breakdown has been added Successfully.', 'default', array('class' => 'oMsg1 oMsgError1') ); $this->redirect('qty_breakdown'); } else { // NOTE: If you're using the FormHelper, you DON'T // have to do this, the FormHelper will automatically // mark invalid fields 'invalid' $this->set('errors', $this->Breakdown->invalidFields()); // However, it's Good practice to set a general error message $this->Session->setFlash('Unable to save your data'); } } } </code></pre> <h2>The documentation</h2> <p>This part of the documentation describes <a href="http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/models/saving-your-data.html#model-savemany-array-data-null-array-options-array" rel="nofollow">Model::saveMany()</a></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
