This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The issue here is that the user wanted to edit a single custom field on their posts in a list without going to the post page itself.
Solution:
To resolve this you can create an edit post form and set it to submit using AJAX. Then removed all the fields that aren't needed leaving only the needed field and the submit button.
Finally just add that form to the view listing out your posts. From there you can Edit the Field A and change the values for each of the posts without having to go to the post itself. You can edit the fields from the list.

Hi Joost,
Thank you for getting in touch. Have a look at my screenshot.
Does this look similar to what you want to achieve?
What I did was to create an edit post form and set it to submit using AJAX. Then I removed all the fields that weren't needed leaving only the needed field and the submit button.
Finally I just added that form to the view listing out my books. From here I can Edit my Field A and change the values for each of the posts without having to go to the post itself. I can edit the fields from the list.
Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane
