Hi John, welcome to the Isis mailing list.
If you use JDO there's no need to use the mutual registration pattern [1]
which saves a lot of boilerplate code.
The pattern that we have currently in Estatio when creating child object
return the parent object after adding a new child.
public Invoice addInvoiceItem(..) {
....
}
