Analytic Application- Editing Sort Tool

I'm currently working on a project that involves particular formatting and standardization through an Alteryx Application. In one of the workflows I would like to add to my chained application, I'm attempting to implement a customizable sort tool where the fields consistently update and the user can select the desired field through a drop down and the sort can be decided by the user whether that be ascending or descending. Currently having trouble choosing a different field from the original field used in the tool along with the choice of sort. Attached below are my two action configurations.

Any error messages?   Can you post the app with the tools you're having trouble with?  The screenshots don't show the bottom of the Action window. 

 

To debug a macro (or app), open your macro then use menu option View > Interface Designer, then click the magic wand icon, populate any parameter values, then click the Open Debug window. A debug workflow will open as a new tab in your current Alteryx session. Run the debug workflow to make sure it is creating your desired results.

 

This also helps to debug:
