Happens to me quite often. Easiest thing Ive done is go to 0%signing bonus and get the minimum salaries for the years you are trying to sign.

Year 1 132300
Year 2
Year 3
etc

then if it happens again you have you minimum salary for all the years.

There's is prob a easier fix out there but that's what I do.

The reason you're getting the error is because in the contract calculator the top field is the base salary + bonus. If you are signing a player to a minimum salary for more than one year, you have to include the minimum salary + the first year bonus in the top field. In this case it is often easier to just enter the values in the table at the bottom.
