Once you’ve decided what to name your fields, the next step is usually deciding where to put them.
Here again, consistency is the key. If the Owner field is located on the top right of the 1st section on Opportunity, it’s a reasonable idea to put it in the exact same spot on Account. This way users understand where to look for similar fields across objects.
Using UX principles, the 1st section is most read, so the highest priority fields should call this place home. The remaining sections can follow priority or order. This means the payment section comes before the receipt section.
The System Information section should always be at the bottom, since most users don’t care to know this information. Last Created and Last Modified are thereby the most hated fields on the page.
Each section shouldn’t have more than 12 fields for easier readability. And they are groups by similarity.
If a section has two columns, the number of fields in each column should be roughly similar. It looks really weird to have 3 fields in one column, and 8 in another.
And I don’t know why they have a blank field, since no one should be using that.
The takeaway
Give fields a good home. One that follows UX best practices, trains users switching between objects, and has symmetry.
