Hi,

 

I've got a pretty complex model going on, and I am writing an an excel file (appending) a few times throughout. However, even with the Feature Writer (as shown here) field names, it's not being picked up in the Feature Reader which is the next step. I know there's other field names of this type in the model, however I'm pointingit at the file to read, and they appear as such in the written excel file.

 

I've tried purging temp data, closing and opening workspace, but to no avail. Any ideas?

Thanks

Under parameters, uncheck the sheets and click ok. When you open the parameters again the sheets are reset.

does your process add new fields before the feature reader? If so, then you're not going to be able to see those fields exposed in fme as when you setup the reader, they don't exist. To work with these fields you're stepping into dynamic workflow and schema processes.

Yes on the dynamic part.

But when developing a workspace, the schema in the FeatureReader seems to be stuck. Like cache which won't refresh. To force a refresh, deselecting all the sheets under parameters seems to help.
