Well, first you are using a UIData object (it is inferred via the use of the <h:dataTable> tag). The list that you return (being constructed on the fly) is managed by the UIData table, and upon form submit each of the WorkQuoteDetail instances that are part of that UIData object will be updated, and I think they are updated. The part that is missing from your code submission is how you are checking the value of qtOfEffort to determine if it has been changed or not; can you provide that snippet?
