Not much to see here -- I made a couple of tweaks.

 

Bonus:  I would advise my colleague run the 60 data files through an Alteryx preprocessor workflow that would ensure column order.

Batch Macro and Directory are keys. On a side note, please download File1 to File4 on your own.

Used a batch macro for this while stating that order of columns might be different during batches.
