I guess you have changed the id of the menu entry. So this can happen if the update process can not delete the previous menu record. There should be a warning about that in the process log.

yes that’s what exactly happened
how can i delete the previous record ? do i have to do it manually in postgres ?

When developing it is usually simpler to recreate a new DB.
Otherwise you need to figure out why is trytond not able to delete the record and try to fix the root cause. In last resort you will have to delete the record yourself from the database.
