 ps = con.prepareStatement(SQL);

     ps.setDate(1,da);
 ps.setInt(2,rm1);
 ps.setString(3,customer);
 ps.setString(4,item);
 ps.setInt(5,in1);

Parameter index out of range (1>0)

You are using a PreparedStatement but have not set any bind parameters. All your set methods have no where to bind their values.

To use PreparedStatements, you need to supply placeholders for the various set methods you call to bind their values. FOr example:

String sql = "insert into foo (id, name) values (?,?) ;"
PreparedStatement ps = connection.prepareStatement(sql);
ps.setInt(1, 1);  // binds a value to the first '?'
ps.setString(2,"bar"); // binds a value to the second '?'
