It seems a little odd to me that you are using: [code] $this->Datum->saveAll($this->data['Datum']) [/code]
I would assume that the correct form (the one I always use) is: [code] $this->Datum->saveAll($this->data) [/code] so that the model, when processing the data, can recognise the model to which the data belongs!
