How to fix this error?

You can either insert the object after the existing items and assign it
any number from "4" onwards or change the item numbers:
Choose the relevant view. Adjust the item numbers of the dependent
objects in one of the following ways:
Adjust the number yourself by converting the object with the item
number 3 into the object with the item number 4, for example.
Choose the <ZK>Renumber </>pushbutton from the toolbar. The numbers are
then automatically assigned in steps of ten so that you can insert
objects.
We recommend that you assign item numbers in steps of ten from the
outset.
Repeat the copy process and insert the object at the required position.
