How To Fix KE/NC128 - You cannot execute due to the status of the realignment run

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: KE/NC -

• Message number: 128

• Message text: You cannot execute due to the status of the realignment run

What causes this issue?

Realignment run "&V1&" can no longer be executed due to its status.
The following status changes are supported:
A new realignment run can be <ZH>scheduled</> using the "Schedule"
function.
If the job control executes a scheduled realignment run, its status
becomes <ZH>running</>.
A realignment run that is "running" can be completed as <ZH>successful
</>, or it can be terminated abnormally.
If it is terminated abnormally, the status becomes <ZH>terminated</>.
Once a run is either "successful" or "terminated", you can restore the
data to its state before that run. In this case, the realignment run
takes on the status <ZH>restored</> (or terminated, if the restore
cannot be completed successfully).
A restored run retains this status. If you want to execute the
realignment again, you need to copy the realignment run.
