I have a workspace that writes out an excel file using a dynamic writer, to which I have added some user attributes.

 

 

The output puts the user attributes at the end of the dynamic schema attributes, ie, in the last columns of each excel worksheet.

 

 

Is there a way to control the order of these field using a dynamic writer?

I haven't used it myself, so you'll need to experiment but I think the 'Schema (From Table)' Reader may give you what you need here. Especially if you ensure you use the 'Attribute Order' parameter. 

 

 

Failing that a Workspace Resource may help.
