    { name: "Parent1", id: 1 },
    { name: "Parent2", id: 2 }
  ],
  columns: [
    { field: "name" },
    { field: "id" }
  ]
});

$("#child").kendoMultiColumnComboBox({
  cascadeFrom: "parent",
  cascadeFromField: "parentId",
  dataTextField: "name",
  dataValueField: "id",
  dataSource: [
    { name: "Child1", id: 1, parentId: 1 },
    { name: "Child2", id: 2, parentId: 2 },
    { name: "Child3", id: 3, parentId: 1 },
