Unable to save data from a One To Many - php

Question

I created a one to many relationship between a society and its employees. Everything worked great, I can see the user list when I'm editing the society page and I can select some of them, but the problem is that I can't save / persist those data, and i don't know why.
I tried a lot of things, like adding allow_add =>true or by_reference => false inside the FormType, but it doesn't work even though it still saves the rest of the form, such as the society's name and its address.
Here are the entities :

Please tell me if you want me to add a file to the question, I'll edit it. Thank you in advance
edit: I can see the array with the user I selected if I dump the form content

Answer 1

In your SocieteType.php change:
->add('salaries', null, array(
'by_reference' => false,
)
to
->add('salaries', 'entity', array(
'class' => 'SocieteBundle\Entity\Societe',
'property' => 'raisonSociale',
)
