This error indicates that the system has detected an issue with the selection of holiday payments, specifically that no holiday payment has been selected, and only "Sunday" or "Saturday" has been chosen.
  Cause:
  
  No Holiday Payment Selected: The payroll configuration may not have a holiday payment type defined for the employee or the specific payroll run.

  Employee Master Data: The employee's master data may not have the necessary information regarding holiday payments or the relevant infotype may be missing or incorrectly configured.
