You can use an AttributeKeeper or AttributeRemover after the Deaggregator. In your position, I wouldn't be worrying too much about them, and tidy all my attributes at the end of the process. There are of course cases where it is crucial to remove attributes mid translation

Hi @jamal​ ,

As an alternative to removing them at the end of your translation, in the Deaggrator if you remove the values for the 'Part Number Attribute' and 'Geometry Name Attribute' parameters then the fields you've highlighted will not be created.
