Thanks for helping. I have tried what ever you asked in your last email. I have created a new DbEntity called "UserRole_systemUser" and between UserRole and UserRole_systemUser I did 1 to M and between UserRole_SystemUser and SystemUser I have 1 to 1. is this correct?
now in object entity I can get ToMany relation from "UserRole" but not from "SystemUser".
What am I missing here?
Thanks,
Denna

Yes, this is well-supported in Cayenne and is called a flattened
relationship. Check the user guide for full details, but in generaly,
here's what you'll need to do:
Make sure you have DbEntities for USER_ROLE, SYSTEM_USER, and
SYSTEM_USER_ROLE (or whatever your join table is called).
Set up relationships between USER_ROLE and SYSTEM_USER_ROLE and
relationships between SYSTEM_USER and SYSTEM_USER_ROLE.
Note that the "to_dep_key" must be set on the USER_ROLE and in SYSTEM_USER
DbRelationships rather than in SYSTEM_USER_ROLE relationships.
After you've done this, you will only need ObjEntities for UserRole and
SystemUser.
You should be able to set up a to-many relationship directly between
USER_ROLE and SYSTEM_USER, and it should automatically pick up the two-step
join from the DbRelationships. (ie, USER_ROLE.USER_ROLE_ID ->
SYSTEM_USER_ROLE.USER_ROLE_ID and SYSTEM_USER_ROLE.SYSTEM_USER_ID ->
SYSTEM_USER.SYSTEM_USER_ID.)
