doc = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentDBDocument
uiapp = DocumentManager.Instance.CurrentUIApplication 
app = uiapp.Application

#######OK NOW YOU CAN CODE########

# The inputs to this node will be stored as a list in the IN variables.
ttb_d = IN[0]

# Place your code below this line
sht_d = []
ttb_r = UnwrapElement(ttb_d).Id

TransactionManager.Instance.EnsureInTransaction(doc)

for na,nu in zip(nam_d, num_d):
    sht = ViewSheet.Create(doc, ttb_r)
    sht.Name = na
    sht.SheetNumber = nu
    sht_d.append(sht.ToDSType(False))

TransactionManager.Instance.TransactionTaskDone()
    

# Assign your output to the OUT variable.
OUT = sht_d

post your code this way…

Hi @amralhmady331, welcome
My understanding is that you are trying to create new sheets and your script it is overwriting existing sheets
You can add a check with the following code insert

TransactionManager.Instance.EnsureInTransaction(doc)

# Collect all current sheet numbers
collector = (
    FilteredElementCollector(doc)
    .OfClass(ViewSheet)
    .WhereElementIsNotElementType()
    .ToElements()
    )
    
sheetnumbers = set([viewsheet.SheetNumber for viewsheet in collector])

for na,nu in zip(nam_d, num_d):
    # Check if number exists
    if nu in sheetnumbers:
        continue
    sht = ViewSheet.Create(doc, ttb_r)
    sht.Name = na
    sht.SheetNumber = nu
    sht_d.append(sht.ToDSType(False))
