This is more likely to be to do with isolation level than transactionality
(although the two are closely related). You might try setting:
<entity-deployment name="YourBean" isolation="repeatable_read">
...
</entity-deployment>
in your orion-ejb-jar.xml.
Disclaimer: I could well be wrong, I often am!
