hello, hope this help 
 The target parameter accepts a list of variables, in this case you are wrongly passing all the current ids of your rule input variable (2000,2001,200), instead pass them one by one in order to make it work you must perform the save as follows 
 
 a!forEach( items: ri!csetenderphases, expression: a!save( fv!item.id, /*just an example, find out the right index for the local list*/ index( local!csetenderphaseslist, fv!index, null ) ) )

Alternate way to avoid any loops is to use updateCdt() function. Just use updateCdt to update fields/CDT attributes that do not have direct mappings before saving them into your rule input. For instance based on your screenshot seems like only (.user) attribute is set from another local but other attributes are directly mapped, so in this case code snippet be like - 
 
 a!save(
 ri!csetenderphases,
 updatecdt(
 local!csetenderphases,
 {
 user: repeat(count(local!csetenderphases), local!newUser)
 }
 )
)
