  The SAP error message 53548, which states "This report cannot be executed in a 'HR-only system'," typically occurs in systems that are configured as HR-only systems.

  Check System Configuration: Verify if the system is indeed set up as an HR-only system. This can usually be checked in the system settings or by consulting with your SAP Basis team.
  Use Alternative Reports: If the report you are trying to run is not supported in an HR-only system, look for alternative reports that provide similar information but are designed to work within the constraints of an HR-only environment.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific report you are trying to execute. There may be specific guidelines or alternative approaches suggested by SAP.
  Consider System Upgrade: If your business needs require the execution of reports that are not supported in an HR-only system, consider upgrading to a full SAP system that includes the necessary modules.
