Benefit and Business Value
Optimize data retrieval for billing output to reduce rendering time during generation of output and preview of billing documents.
Business Example
Billing clerks only want to print header information of a billing document, and a billing document contains more than 1000 items, it takes a very long time to render the full information of the billing document.
Log on as extensibility specialist. Open Output Management Form Template Fiori app, create a custom template by coping a predelivered template.
To edit the newly created custom template, select the Optimize data service checkbox. Then download it.
Modify the downloaded form template, remove some nodes of the form based on your business purpose, then save it.
Open Output Management Form Template Fiori app, update the modified form template.
Log on as Administrator, and open Output Parameter Determination Fiori app. Use the custom template you just created to define the output parameter determination for Billing Documents.
Log on as Billing Clerk, open Manage Billing Documents Fiori app. Check whether the Form Template is determined as the one you just created. If yes, then the rendering in the output of billing documents will be optimized. The cut-off nodes will not be in XML when rendering a PDF for output of billing documents.
