Disclosed is a method, system and program product for providing domain level business object keys in Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) applications. An instance of an EntityBean object is provided with both a primary key and a domain key class. The primary key class is associated with a home selected for the EntityBean object, and the domain key class is associated with a particular business application within which the EntityBean object is being utilized. The EntityBean and associated home is thus able to be utilized across different business applications while ensuring uniqueness across said different applications. Also, a common interface for said primary key is introduced that has methods, which (1) provide an initialized instance of associated domain key classes from a concrete primary key subclass, wherein a concrete primary key subclass knows its associated domain key and is able to initialize the domain key from a subset of attributes of the primary key, and (2) creates an initialized instance of a primary key subclass from a given domain key and a context object.
