Thanks, I'm still not too clear on that. Just to make sure I've understood this, please tell me if my logic here is correct:

I declare my BOs:

        protected PolicyHeader oPolicyHeader;
        protected Policy oPolicy;

then I register them:

            this.oPolicyHeader = (PolicyHeader)this.RegisterBizObj(new PolicyHeader());
            this.oPolicy = (Policy)this.RegisterBizObj(new Policy());

then I register the policy as a child of the policy header:

this.oPolicyHeader.RegisterChildBizObj(this.oPolicy);

Now I get a list of all the policy headers and process them one at a time:

            mmBindingList<PolicyHeaderEntity> PolicyHeaderList = this.oPolicyHeader.GetActivePolicies();
            foreach (PolicyHeaderEntity oPolicyHeaderEntity in PolicyHeaderList)
            {

                mmSaveDataResult result = DailyProcessPolicy(oPolicyHeaderEntity, userPK);
                if (result != mmSaveDataResult.RulesPassed)
                {
                    string rules = this.Rules.GetAllBrokenRules();
                }

            }

In my processing of each one, I get the PolicyHeader I'm dealing with, then I want to get the Policy entity List (which will always only be one policy) for the header and then change a value on the Policy:

        public mmSaveDataResult DailyProcessPolicy(PolicyHeaderEntity oPolicyHeaderEntity, int userPK)
        {
// do i need to get an empty data set if I then get a specific policy header?
            this.oPolicyHeader.GetEmptyDataSet();
            this.oPolicyHeader.GetPolicyHeaderByPolicyHeaderPK(oPolicyHeaderEntity.PolicyHeaderPK);
            mmBindingList<PolicyEntity> PolicyList = this.oPolicy.GetPolicyListByPolicyHeaderFK(oPolicyHeaderEntity.PolicyHeaderPK);

                oPolicyHeader.Entity.LapseNoticeSent = DateTime.Today;

                oPolicy.Entity.StatusFK = (int)Policy.StatusCode.Lapsed;
}

So by doing this:

oPolicy.Entity.StatusFK = (int)Policy.StatusCode.Lapsed;

I am actually referring to the policy entity that was returned by the call:

this.oPolicy.GetPolicyListByPolicyHeaderFK(oPolicyHeaderEntity.PolicyHeaderPK);

Is that right?
