Here is a bit lengthy approach. But needs some design modifications in your app. I had a similar problem and I created separate pojos for every entity classes.

In service layer I use these pojos instead of the entity objects as parameters and I use appropriate getters/setters to set/get the properties to/from entity classes. In this way you can get/set the properties you want to and avoid unwanted ones. However I implemented additional methods in DAO layer to get the related entities. This is very lengthy approach but solved the problem for me.
