Solution 1:

The Flow Engine can be re-started by using the
Setup -> Advanced menu to set the Implementation
State to Mapped, then selecting the Play button.



Solution 2:

In the Flow Engine setup->advanced menu, there is a way to change the Implemente
d state.
Change this to Routed and hit OK.
then go back to the flow engine, step back to a completed MAP state and then hit
 run or step. This will take the design successfully into PAR.

NB. It is not possible to change the Implemented state to "mapped" directly. CR#
102656
details this.
