var order = _context.orderFactors.FirstOrDefault(o => o.UserId == userId && !o.IsFinally);
if (order != null)

You are reading from the DB here
But then you try to add the value again here if orderDetail is not null
The order object that you have read will have an Id and therefore the DB thinks you are trying to add the same Id to that table.
Without seeing exactly how you are inserting/updating this it is tough to answer. That said, the error message is fairly explanatory (for once!). You are trying to enter a value into an identity/primary key field. That field is (most likely) auto generated/incremented by your database to guarantee uniqueness.
Somewhere in your saveChanges funtion you are either inserting (most likely) an ID or you are trying to update an ID. If those are marked identity, they cannot be altered unless you set
IDENTITY_INSERT ON
.Double check your saveChanges model and the query behind it to make sure you’re not trying to update/change/insert your primary key value.
