My actions collections is getting out of hand (over 50) . Is a way I can sub categorize my actions?

also is there a way i can put them in order A-Z in the subcategory?

Yes. In addition to the documentation link above please see my post on expanding the Actions menu to three levels: [Action Menu Level 3 Is Undocumented](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/action-menu-level-3-is-undocumented/62280)

Ok, I understand now how to creat the main group and the sub group. My question is, I don't want to have to recreate the actions I already have. How do I move my previously created actions in my main subgroup.  
for example, I want to mov by my actions called "remove specific words & remove number from artist" into the main group REMOVE # track numbers

A right-click on the action group name lets you rename the action group

Rename "remove specific words" to "Remove#specific words"  
Rename "remove number from artist" to "Remove#number from artist"  
(try to avoid the spaces around the `#`)

oK.. we are making progress. Now is there a way I can reorganize the subcrates to automatically sort a-z?

Have you seen the function "Sort by name" in the same right-click menu?
