Hi Rohit, if I undestood it right, I think you have to add some extra logic to your importer:
1. After unmarshalling the object which contains the reference (let's call it object A) access the referenced object (let's call it B) and fetch it's primary key. 2. Because an object with the same attributes as B (let's call it C) is already persistent in your system, you can use this PK to fetch it with Hibernate. 3. Now replace A's reference to B by a reference to the persistent C. B can be discarded. 4. Make A persistent. Hibernate will recognize that it's connected to C and that C hasn't changed - so only A will be inserted and it will have a reference to C.
