Try this:
  <xsl:template match="*">
    <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
      <xsl:apply-templates>
        <xsl:sort select="@ActionCode"/>
        <xsl:sort select="@MaterialNumber" data-type="number"/>
      </xsl:apply-templates>
    </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:template>

This it's a version of the identity transform. You copy the current
element and apply-templates in sorted order
