The Problem:
Good REST design assumes a single URI to identify a given resource. In the enterprise sphere this might cause an unneeded overhead. Take for instance a product entity as an example. Looking at it from a customer point of view you would be interested in information such as name, price, description and availability. From a purchaser point of view (the person in the company buying this product from its suppliers) he doesn't care about the customer prices. He cares about data related to the purchasing of this product such as last_purchased_supplier, suppliers, supplier prices and so on. Again the customer 1)should not care about the purchasing data associated to a product and 2) not be allowed to see it anyhow.
For a record, in SAP a product has more than 100 columns. A sales order item has more than 150 columns, although there are reasons for this complexity needless to say that not everybody needs all data returned.
A Solution:
One solution could be to introduce the concept of a RestReso
