Views Form Fields

Views Form Fields allows developers to use insert Forms Fields into a View, like a textfields, textareas, checkboxes or select boxes.

This module provides a new display to attach views into a node form. You can use this display to create nodes with lines of items, i.e:

Invoice: xyz
Client name: Mike

Line of items:

+----Product-----+-----Quantity*---+
+ Rice           +  5              +
+ Olive oil      +  3              +
+ Salt           +  2              +
+----------------------------------+

*Quantity are Select box form fields.

When the node is submitted, this fields are merged into the $form array so you can use it respecting the Form API rules.

Also you can use this module to retrieve data from tables created by Data Module or Table Wizard. Since probably they use complex schemas, you can define a view with forms fields to edit records for this tables.
