  The SAP error message DBOSC505 indicates that there is an issue with a database operation where an input value is out of the expected range. This error typically occurs during database operations, such as when trying to insert or update records in a database table.
  Cause:
  The error message DBOSC505 Error while checking input &1=&2; out of range suggests that:
  
  The value being processed (denoted by &2) for a specific field (denoted by &1) is not within the acceptable range defined for that field in the database schema.
  This could be due to:
  
  Incorrect data being passed to the database operation.
  A mismatch between the data type or size of the input value and the database field definition.
  Business logic that enforces certain constraints that are not being met.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the DBOSC505 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Identify the Field and Value:
  
  Check the error message for the specific field (&1) and the value (&2) that is causing the issue. This will help you understand which data is problematic.
  
  
  
  Review Database Schema:

  Validate Input Data:
  
  Ensure that the data being passed to the database operation is valid and conforms to the expected format and range. This may involve:
  
  Validating user input in the application layer.
  Implementing checks before the database operation to ensure values are within the acceptable range.
  
  
  
  
  
  Adjust Business Logic:
  
  If the error is due to business logic constraints, review and adjust the logic to ensure that it allows for valid data to be processed.
  
  
  
  Testing:
