  The SAP error message DDVIDB062 indicates that there is an issue with mapping a value to a parameter in a function module. This typically occurs when the data types or structures of the parameters do not match the expected types defined in the function module.
  Cause:
  
  Data Type Mismatch: The data type of the value being passed to the function does not match the expected data type of the parameter.
  Structure Mismatch: If the parameter is a structure, the fields in the structure may not align correctly with the expected fields in the function module.
  Incorrect Parameter Usage: The function module may be expecting a different number of parameters or different types of parameters than what is being provided.

  Solution:
  
  Check Parameter Definitions: Review the function module's parameter definitions in the ABAP Dictionary (SE11) or in the function module itself (SE37). Ensure that the data types and structures match what you are passing.
  Adjust Data Types: If there is a mismatch, convert the data to the appropriate type before passing it to the function module. This may involve using conversion functions or casting.
  Review Structure Fields: If you are passing a structure, ensure that all fields in the structure are correctly defined and match the expected fields in the function module.
  Check for Optional Parameters: Ensure that you are not missing any required parameters and that optional parameters are being handled correctly.
  Debugging: Use the debugger to step through the code and inspect the values being passed to the function module. This can help identify where the mismatch is occurring.
  Consult Documentation: If available, refer to the documentation for the function module to understand its expected input and output parameters.
