Support Server Side Aggregating When Grid Bound to DataTable
The documentation wrongly says that the grid will perform all server operations of paging, sorting, grouping, and aggregating whether bound to an iQueryable interface or a DataTable (http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/getting-started/using-kendo-with/aspnet-mvc/helpers/grid/faq).

It turns out, after an extensive support ticket, that the documentation is plainly wrong. I have been told that only the COUNT() aggregate is supported when doing server side operations and bound to a Grid.

My request is that this gap in functionality should be fixed so that server operations work for both iQueryable datasources and DataTables.

Indeed aggregates are not supported out-of-the-box when binding to a DataTable/IQueryable - we apologize if the documentation mislead you, it'll be updated soon.

Presently your option to support aggregates is demonstrated in this code library thread:

"...is supported when doing server side operations and bound to a **DataTable**.".
