  The SAP error message UJD_EXCEPTION040 with the description "Command failed &1; end position is out of record index" typically occurs in the context of SAP BusinessObjects or SAP BW when there is an issue with data retrieval or processing in a report or query. This error indicates that the end position specified in a command exceeds the available records in the dataset.
  Causes:
  
  Incorrect Pagination: The error may arise if the pagination settings in a report or query are incorrectly configured, leading to an attempt to access records that do not exist.
  Data Source Changes: If the underlying data source has changed (e.g., records have been deleted or the structure has changed), it may lead to discrepancies in the expected record count.
  Query Filters: Filters applied to the query may result in fewer records than expected, causing the end position to exceed the actual number of records returned.

  Check Pagination Settings: Review the pagination settings in the report or query. Ensure that the start and end positions are correctly set and do not exceed the total number of records.
