In my project, I'm using native Solana to create a contract. It is a basic program for users to enter their product info. I successfully built and deployed the contract but when I try to send a transaction from a client to enter product data I get an error:
Err value: Custom { kind: InvalidInput, error: "Unexpected length of input" }

index.ts (client)

const productInstructionLayout = borsh.struct([
    borsh.u8('variant'),
    borsh.str('name'),
    borsh.u32('price'),
    borsh.u32('quantity'),
])

async function sendTestProductInfo(signer: web3.Keypair, programId: web3.PublicKey, connection: web3.Connection) {
    let buffer = Buffer.alloc(1000)
    const productName = `Shirt${Math.random()*100}`
    productInstructionLayout.encode(
        {
            variant: 0,
            name: productName,
            price: 200,
            quantity: 2000,
        },
        buffer
    )

    buffer = buffer.slice(0, productInstructionLayout.getSpan(buffer))
    console.log(buffer.length)
    const [pda] = web3.PublicKey.findProgramAddressSync(
        [signer.publicKey.toBuffer(), Buffer.from(productName)],
        programId
    )

    console.log("PDA is:", pda.toBase58())

    const transaction = new web3.Transaction()
    
    const instruction = new web3.TransactionInstruction({
        programId: programId,
        data: buffer,
        keys: [
            {
                pubkey: signer.publicKey,
                isSigner: true,
                isWritable: false
            },
            {
                pubkey: pda,
                isSigner: false,
                isWritable: true
            },
            {
                pubkey: web3.SystemProgram.programId,
                isSigner: false,
                isWritable: false
            }
        ]
    })

    transaction.add(instruction)
    const tx = await web3.sendAndConfirmTransaction(connection, transaction, [signer])
}

    let mut product_data =

    product_data.name = name;
    product_data.price = price;
    product_data.quantity = quantity;
    product_data.is_initialized = true;

    product_data.serialize(&mut &mut pda_account.data.borrow_mut()[..])?;
    Ok(())
}

It seems that the error has to do with instruction_data. But I am not sure where it comes from since I matched the layout on my client with the contract payload. Can someone help?

Looks like you're forgetting to reserve the first element of the buffer for the instruction representation. buffer[0] should be set to 0 to represent AddProductData, while the rest of your arguments are serialized into the buffer starting from [1..].
