<p>The <a href="getting_started006.htm#BABIDCBA">Tutorial Object Model</a> contains three entities: <span class="bold">Employee</span>, <span class="bold">Address</span>, and <span class="bold">PhoneNumber</span>. Use this procedure to add the entities to the project.</p>
<ol type="1" start="1">
<li>
<p>Right-click the <span class="bold">Employee</span> project in the <span class="gui-object-title">Package Explorer</span> and select <span class="gui-object-action">New &gt; Class</span>. The New Java Class dialog appears.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>On the <span class="gui-object-title">Java Class</span> dialog, enter a package name (such as <code>dali.tutorial.model</code>), class name (such as <code>Employee</code>), and click <span class="gui-object-action">Finish</span>. Eclipse adds the Employee entity to the Package Explorer.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Select the <code>Employee</code> entity in the JPA Structure view.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>In the JPA Details view, in the Map As field, select <span class="bold">Entity</span>. In the Table field, select the <span class="bold">EMPLOYEE</span> database table.</p>

<img src="img/address_jpa_details.png" alt="" title="" /><br /></div>
<!-- class="figure" --></li>
</ol>
<p>Eclipse adds the <code>@Entity</code> annotation to the class. Repeat this procedure to add the <span class="bold">PhoneNumber</span> and <span class="bold">Address</span> entities.</p>
<p>Notice that the Problems view reports several errors for each entity. We'll address these shortly.</p>
<p>Next, you will <a href="getting_started011.htm#BABDCBDD">Add fields to the entities</a>.</p>
