Issue with updating array data in foreach loop

I am working on an invoice in which i want to update table data.

My script only updates the last row of the table. Can this work with this foreach loop?

Following is the script I am trying to do it with:

HTML input fields

<tr>
    <input type="hidden" name="data['+i+'][Id]" value="<?php echo $Id; ?>" >
    <input type="hidden" name="data['+i+'][ItemId]" value="<?php echo $item_Id; ?>" >
    <td><input type="text" value="<?php echo $item; ?>"></td>
    <td><input type="text" name="data['+i+'][QTY]" value="<?php echo $Quantity; ?>"</td>
    <td><input type="number" value="<?php echo $price; ?>"></td>
    <td><input type="number" name="data['+i+'][total]" value="<?php echo $total; ?>"></td>
</tr>

PHP

if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
    foreach($_POST['data'] as $key => $data) {
        $Id = intval($data['Id']);
        $itemId = intval($data['ItemId']);
        $QTY = intval($data['QTY']);
        $Total = intval($data['total']);

        if($itemId > 0) {
            $query = $db - > prepare("UPDATE table SET QTY = :QTY where id = :ID ");
            $query - > execute(array(':ID' => $ID, ':QTY' => $QTY));
        }
    }
}

This does not seem to be valid syntax:

data['+i+']

PHP will consider this as a string with a fixed value, meaning your $_POST[data] array will only have one key, each new occurrence overwriting the previous one. In the end it will look like this: 

$_POST[data] == array( '+i+' => array(
    'Id' => ...,
    'ItemId' => ...,
    'QTY' => ...,
    'total' => ...
));

You probably want to use some PHP in your code in order to properly write the i index:

<tr>
    <input type="hidden" name="data[<?php echo $i; ?>][Id]" value="<?php echo $Id; ?>" >
    <input type="hidden" name="data[<?php echo $i; ?>][ItemId]" value="<?php echo $item_Id; ?>" >
    <td><input type="text" value="<?php echo $item; ?>"></td>
    <td><input type="text" name="data[<?php echo $i; ?>][QTY]" value="<?php echo $Quantity; ?>"</td>
    <td><input type="number" value="<?php echo $price; ?>"></td>
    <td><input type="number" name="data[<?php echo $i; ?>][total]" value="<?php echo $total; ?>"></td>
</tr>

and increment it for each row.
