Array result was not expanded because it would overwrite data in D5.

Hi,

I have use case for Google Sheet.

I have third party software which writes data to a Google Sheet. Google sheet has 5 columns
With IMPORTRANGE function I am writing data to another Google sheet. I intend show lastRow fields in a template attached to this google sheet. Plus if I make changes to template, fields in the google sheet should be updated. 

However I am always receiving an error "Array result was not expanded because it would overwrite data in D5."

Kindly suggest
Thanks

this simply means what it says
that the formula is being "interuptted" from writing its result because there is data in said cell

delete that data & formula result will expand
unless - there is more data blocking its path
