            domain: Sales
          - name: Order Type

          - name: Order Delivery Management
            description: A set of terms related to Order delivery management
            terms:
              - name: Order Deliver to Address
                description: TBC
                domain: Sales
              - name: Order Sold to Address
                description: TBC
                domain: Sales
              - name: Order Ship to Address
                description: TBC
                domain: Sales
              - name: Order Hold Code
                description: TBC
                domain: Sales```

only nodes section can have nodes and terms as children
you are trying to add children to terms

add a sub-node to Order and create terms for this sub-node
