1. Go to Configure Object Definition 

2. Select Object ( Ex. Legal Entity ) 

3. Take Action >  Make Correction 

4. Add new field (ex: cust_addtestfield)

5. Save

6. Observe that there's a list of Associations

7. Go to Manage Data 

8.  Search Object ( Ex. Legal Entity ) 

9. Notice the order of the new field (addtestfield) - View Mode

10.  Select Take Action > Make Correction and noticed that the order of the new field (addtestfield), shows in the USA Association Section

11. Search another Legal Entity, that's not on the list of Association from the Configure Object Definition ( Legal Entity) Example : Australia.

      When go to Take Action> Make Correction, the new field ( Ex. addtestfield ) is in same order, no change

The order of the field changes because the countryOfRegistration field control the visibility of the CSF association.

This is Expected Behavior.

If the field needs to appear in a more consistent manner, it has to be placed before the countryOfRegistration field via Configuration Object Definitions. This can be done by changing the field orders.
