The simple answer to your question is NO. This is SAP standard behavior, and if you want to restrict the number of columns to be returned, it will require you to change the original source code of SAP implementation.

Why This Mapping Doesn't Work SAP lists expect a flat structure of similar objects, while an object of objects creates a nested, hierarchical structure. This fundamental difference in data organization prevents direct mapping. Example Structure Comparison Here's what you might have (object of objects) − { "employee1": { "name": "John", "age": 30 }, "employee2": { "name": "Jane", "age": ...
