  The SAP error message CNV_10996012 indicates that a job with the specified name (&1) is either already scheduled or has been executed successfully. This error typically arises in the context of data migration or conversion processes, particularly when using SAP's Conversion Tools or during system migrations.
  Cause:
  
  Job Already Scheduled: The job you are trying to schedule is already in the job queue. This can happen if the job was previously scheduled and not yet completed.
  Job Already Executed: The job has already run successfully, and the system does not allow it to be executed again without a specific reason (e.g., re-running a migration job).
  Duplicate Job Submission: There may be an attempt to submit the same job multiple times, leading to this conflict.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Job Status:
  
  Go to transaction code SM37 (Job Monitoring) in SAP.
  Enter the job name and check its status. If it is running, you may need to wait for it to complete. If it has completed successfully, you may need to decide whether to run it again or not.
  
  
  
  Delete or Cancel the Job:
  
  If the job is scheduled but not yet started, you can delete it from the job queue.
  If it has run successfully and you need to rerun it, you may need to adjust the job parameters or create a new job with a different name.
  
  
  
  Review Job Parameters:
  
  Ensure that the parameters for the job are set correctly. If the job is meant to be run multiple times, consider modifying its configuration to allow for this.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review the documentation related to the specific migration or conversion process you are working on. There may be specific guidelines on how to handle job scheduling and execution.
