The returned type is specified in the home, and there is no way around this. Now,
you are still returning the implementation of an interface, so you still have some
freedom in the implementation of your ejbCreate() method. Not in your finders,
though (CMP anyway).

No, you won't be able to do that. This is what was called earlier in this thread
"component inheritance", which is not supported in EJB. Only "class inheritance"
is supported.

Why not specify the type of payment process as a parameter to your ejbCreate()
method?
