Answer 1

public JsonResult GetOpportunityListByAccount(string Id)
{
Guid ID = new Guid(Id);
List<OpportunityViewModel> cpvm = new List<OpportunityViewModel>();
List<CrmOpportunity> crmOppList = new List<CrmOpportunity>();
cpvm = srv.OpportunitySet.Where(z => z.CustomerId.Id == ID).ToList();
foreach (var crm in cpvm )
{
CrmOpportunity crmOpp = new CrmOpportunity();
crmOpp.Id = crm.Id;
crmOpp.Name = crm.Name;
crmOppList.Add(crmOpp);
}
return Json(crmOppList, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
#(Html.Kendo().DropDownListFor(x => x.FromOpportunity)
.Name("OpportunityDDL")
.DataTextField("Name")
.DataValueField("Id")
.DataSource(source => {
source.Read(read =>
{
read.Action("GetOpportunityListByAccount", "CrmIntegration");
})
. ServerFiltering(true);
})
.HtmlAttributes( new { style = "margin-left:13px; width: 275px;" })
)
Data access is a little truncated but this is what you'll need to do

Answer 2

#(Html.Kendo().DropDownListFor(model => model.ParentAssetID)
.OptionLabel(" ")
.Name("ParentAssetID")
.DataTextField("AssetName")
.DataValueField("AssetId")
.SelectedIndex(0)
.Text(string.Empty)
.DataSource(source =>
{
source.Read(read =>
{
read.Action("GetAllAssetsByCompanyId", "Asset");
});
}))
Only a minor change but have you tried read.Action? Also is maybe try removing the following;
DropDownListFor(model => model.ParentAssetID)
and replace with
DropDownListFor<ClassName>()
Only a thought.
