In FME 2016.1 , I have noticed that FME always tends to creates a ArcSDE featureclass in the Reader's Feature dataset by default even though the Feature Dataset value on the writer is set to empty. The reader and writers are both using the ArcSDE Geodatabase formats. Is this a know issue? and Is there a fix for this?

@adriancoelho You can right click the Reader\\ Feature Type Properties\\ Format Attributes check the geodb_feature_dataset to expose this attribute. Afterwards you can delete this Attribute in an Attributemanager --> no Feature Dataset will be created.


Or if you want to be sure no Reader attributes are used on the Writer feature types you can use the BulkAttributeRemover (mask geodb* in this case) to remove all reader format attributes.
