How to Store Multiple Rows in Multiple Tables in Laravel Efficiently

When working with Laravel, you may encounter a situation where you need to save multiple rows in different database tables simultaneously. This can be tricky, especially if you're not using the right methods. In this guide, we'll address how to properly achieve this by using the correct approach with Laravel's database operations.

Understanding the Problem

Imagine you have a form that collects details about various purchases. When a user submits this form, you want to save this data in three different database tables:

purchases

bill_products

item_lists

Each table has a specific structure, and you only want to store relevant data in each one. However, if the current implementation only saves one row per table, you will miss out on data integrity and completeness.

Database Schema

Here’s a brief overview of the table structures:

The Solution: Using the insert method

The best way to tackle this scenario in Laravel is using the insert method instead of the create method. This allows you to insert multiple rows into your tables efficiently.

Step-by-Step Implementation

Collect Data from the Request
Use a loop to process each product entry from the request. Store the data in arrays for each model.

Prepare Data for Insertion
Use Laravel's collection to organize your data into an appropriate format for each table.

Insert All Rows in One Go
Use the insert method to save the data to their respective tables.

Code Example

Here's how you can implement this in your PurchaseController.php:

Conclusion

By following this structured approach, you can successfully store multiple rows across different tables in Laravel.

Now, when you implement this in your project, you can confidently handle multiple entries accurately.
