• Key Concepts: 
  Leading restriction is a feature of the SAP Cloud-Based Application Services (BC-SRV-APS) that allows users to limit the number of records that can be processed in a single request. This feature is useful for preventing large requests from overloading the system and causing performance issues.
  
  How to use it: 
  Leading restriction can be enabled by setting the “max_records” parameter in the request header. This parameter specifies the maximum number of records that can be processed in a single request. If the request contains more than this number of records, then only the first “max_records” records will be processed.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to set an appropriate value for the “max_records” parameter. If it is set too low, then requests may not be able to process all of the necessary data. On the other hand, if it is set too high, then requests may take longer to process and could cause performance issues.
