As a user creating a consent centre preference, when selecting a Topic the topic lists should allow typing which prefilters the list of topics presented in the topic field. The topic list presented should be Alpha sorted (currently it is sorted by Create date). 

Consent Center → Enter phone number → Specify Compliance Profile → Select Purpose → Select Topic (Alpha sorted)

The benefit to the user is quicker data entry when creating a contact's preference. Having the list Alpha sorted as opposed to a random list of topics makes finding topics much easier. This is a productivity and usability benefit to the product.
