System behavior.

The current system behavior for Purchase Order output sorts header and item texts by Text ID, meaning that the Text Id will always determined the order, so for example, if F01, F03 and F02 are used in the Purchase Order, the sequence displayed in the Output will be F01, F02 and F03.
The Print Sequence is used only to handle duplicates with the same sequence and does not control the display order. For example, if several entries (such as multiple F03 or other Text IDs) have the same sequence, the Print Sequence determines which text appears first in the output.
