Environment

Reproducing the Issue
1. Logon on SAP Cloud Application Studio
2. Create a new Extended Business Object
3. On the Extended Business Object wizard creation, on field Namespace, select the value http://sap.com/xi/AP/CRM/Global
4. On field Business Object, you try to find the Business Object LeanLead, but the it is not listed here
Cause
LeanLead is a Transformed Object created on the Business Object Lead. If you want to extended the LeanLead Transformed Object, you should extended the Business Object Lead and implement the new fields and logic there.
A transformed object provides consumer-friendly services across multiple business objects and their already existing functionality. A transformed object is used if a view on multiple business objects is required in the representation of a business object (for example, because the using application requires a business object). Transformed objects are instantiated at run-time and do not have their own persistence – they rely on the persistence of the underlying business objects. E.g. of Tranformed Object: BusinessDocumentFlow.
Resolution
1. Logon on Cloud Application Studio
2. Create a new Extended Business Object
3. On the Extended Business Object wizard creation, on field Namespace, select the value http://sap.com/xi/AP/CRM/Global
4. On field Business Object, select Lead and finish the creation of the Extended Business Object
5. Implement your new fields and logic on the Extended Business Object of Lead and all the extension scenario will be replicated to LeanLead
