jqGrid InlineEdit "ENTER" key does not trigger "aftersavefunc" event?

Question

Although this question is similar, it was not helpful in my situation. I have several jqGrids opening in a modal, all with inline editing enabled, keys: true, and a very simple aftersavefunc function defined. However, when the ENTER key is used rather than clicking the save icon, I am not seeing the aftersavefunc event fire. Some of the grids are rather large and use of the KEYBOARD strokes are crucial to save time and improve accuracy. Is this a known issue or is there a way to fool jqGrid into thinking the save icon has been clicked?

Below is my jqGrid definition (BEFORE). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

function hiliteQty(i) {
    console.log('Highlighting received quantity on #' + i);
    $eRow = $('tr#' + i);
    var qtyord = $eRow.find('td.qtyOrd').text();
    var qtyrec = $eRow.find('td.qtyRec').text();
    if ((+qtyord === +qtyrec) && (qtyrec !== null) && (qtyrec !== 'undefined') && (qtyrec !== '')) {
        $eRow.find('td.qtyRec').removeClass('incomplete',100,'linear').addClass('complete',1000,'easeInElastic');
    } else {
        $eRow.find('td.qtyRec').removeClass('complete',100,'linear').addClass('incomplete',1000,'easeInElastic');
    };
}

Answer 1

The main problem in the code: one should use XXEditParam (like mmEditParam) inside of onSelectRow. For example one should replace mmGrid.jqGrid('editRow',id,true) to mmGrid.jqGrid('editRow',id,mmEditParam).

Another important problem: the current code specify keys: true, aftersavefunc and other editing options only for Edit button. Add button don't use the options. If you use some old version of jqGrid you can have event more problems. You have to use keys: true, aftersavefunc and other editing options you have to specify it as addRowParams of addParam options. Just try to add addRowParams: mmEditParam property to mmAddParam and use Add. You will see that keys: true, aftersavefunc and other editing option will start work in case of usage Add button.
