Re-arranging the fields of the attribute table of ESRI feature class\\ESRI standalone table in FME,

 

 

 

I couldn’t figure out if there is a way to re-arranging the fields of the attribute table of ESRI feature class\\ESRI standalone table in FME. In the ArcGIS, I think that there is no tool that can do this task.

 

 

 

 

 

ESRI feature class is stored here:

Thank you

Hi Jamal,

 

 

When writing to the ESRI FeatureClass, you will need to DROP (not TRUNCATE) the table first. You can find that in the database writer properties. 

 

 

Once the DROP option is selected, reorder the Writer Attributes however you want them written. 

 

 

Run the workspace and the table will be "re-ordered" in the correct order.
