Extending the WebSphere Commerce object model

Application requirements may lead you to extend the existing WebSphere Commerce object model. The WebSphere Commerce object model can be extended in two ways.

• By creating a new or modifying an existing WebSphere Commerce entity bean

• By creating a new stateless session bean

• Extending the WebSphere Commerce object model with entity beans
  One situation that merits an extension to the existing WebSphere Commerce object model is addition of attributes to the application.
