DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY: ABAP FM to Check Whether Date is Valid

Some FM/BAPIs will not check whether date is valid or not and it will update whatever values you pass to it.

Then how can we check whether date is valid? Just use the function module
DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY to check the date is valid or not.
