Hi, I have this situation:

I have a Seam generated application (so I use lots of the generated code)

I enter on the edit screen of entity B from the list. 
B has a combo box of entity A. Near this combo box there is a link that sends 
me to the edit screen of the instance of A (A1) that is referred in the 
instance of B (B1).
I placed an attribute on entity A (transient) and on the edit screen, a combo 
box that allows me to create a new instance of A.
So, the flow would be this:
If I check the checkbox, I must "clone" A1 into A2, insert A2 into the DB, 
update B1.setA( A2 ), then update it into the DB.
If i don't check the box, then update A1.

I do this in the AHome class, in the update method:

public String update()
  | {
  |     A a= getInstance();
  |     B b = bHome.getInstance();
  |     if( a.isSaveAsNew() )
  |     {
  |             A newA = a.duplicate();
  |             B.setA(newA);
  | (1)
  |             return persist();
  |     }
  |     else
  |             return super.update();
  | }

But, the problem is that A1 also gets updated, and I don't want this to happen. 
I read on the forum something about FlushType.MANUAL. But I don't start a 
conversation, so what else can I do?

I tried different methods, even to set the newA as the instance, but always a 
gets updated.

Anyone, any idea?
