Hi Sabine! If you want an object to be referenced by another, and not embedded in it, you need to give that object root entity. As a root, the object will have a collection of its own, and will be referenced by other objects by id. If the object is not root, it will be embedded inside the referring object as a property.
So, to be safe, always set #isVoyageRoot to return true at class side of all objects you don't want to have embedded. In general, "big enough" objects who are referenced by different objects should be root. In my case, I had a centre which had users which had centres. Users also had projects, and projects also had users. Big mess, I know. Besides that, all users, centres and projects had profiles. My solution was to make centres, projects and users be roots, and let only the profiles be embedded. I hope this helped!
