  The SAP error message HRGB_GBSXP859 indicates that there is an issue with the date fields in the system, specifically that the BEGDA (begin date) must be greater than or equal to the Died date. This error typically occurs in the context of personnel administration or employee data management, where the system is trying to process or validate records related to an employee's life events, such as their death.

  Check Date Entries: Review the entries for both the BEGDA and the Died date fields. Ensure that the BEGDA is set to a date that is on or after the Died date.
  Correct the Data: If the dates are incorrect, update the BEGDA to a valid date that meets the requirement.
  Data Validation: Implement validation checks in your data entry processes to prevent this error from occurring in the future.
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the correct dates to enter, consult your organization's HR policies or SAP documentation for guidance on handling employee records.
