Ok, what I am struggling with is I have a component, Address, that is just a POJO, not an entity. It is submitted via a form. It's inject into sfsb A which then outjects it. By the time sfsb B comes along, the Address component is null. Both A and B exist in a long running conversation. Address never even shows up on the seam debug page. Thanks for your help.
