We're trying to identify the appropriate location in an EJB design for
placing lower-level business logic.

Reading various books and specs (J2EE) often leaves the impression that
business logic goes in Session beans and Entity beans are for persistence
only.

For high-level business logic affecting multiple persistence tables, I can
see this point.

However, what about for business logic tied directly to a single table?  For
example, a PurchaseOrder Entity bean might expose a number of business
methods.

Are there any technical reasons why a Session bean would be preferable in
this case?  (BTW-- we're using BMP for the Entity beans)

Thanks!
