In your documentation you describe the hierarchy of Employee - Manager - BoardMember.

Assuming you had an existing Manager entity and you wanted to promote them to a BoardMember. How would you suggest adding the new BoardMember entity such that it extends the existing hierarchy.

The basic goal is to just add a new BoardMember record while keeping existing employee / manager records as is for a specific employee.

This is a hierarchy of type TargetPerEntity.

I'm using the 2.6 adapter .net 3.5.

Thanks, that's an interesting workaround. Is there any plan for adding support to do this sort of operation in code (I mean without the alternate mapped entity)?
