Fix Small Issue with the Join Multiple Bug requiring an adjustment to order to work.

Hello!

I recently did Alteryx Weekly Challenge #243, in which i needed to use a join multiple tool at the end to join my three results.

To do this, i joined based on Record Position - and the join was fine, however the order was completely different to that at which was set inside the join tool:

TheOC_2-1626345877763.png



As you can imagine, this was very confusing. However, it seems that if i move one field down, and then back up, it works fine:

This seems to suggest that this selection is not used until it has been adjusted, which is difficult to troubleshoot and may be confusing for new users. I simply suggest a small fix for this, to take this order by default.

Cheers,
TheOC
