Use Update Record processor and use concat function on Date and TIME attributes then in Record Writer avro schema don't mention the original attributes.

Refer to this link for more details regards to Update Record processor.

(or)

1.Another way is to extract the attribute value from the content and keep as Flowfile Attribute(using ExtractText,EvaluateJson..etc) processors then

2.Use Update Attribute processor and add new property in update attribute processor as

 ${Date}${TIME}

in Delete attributes list property value add your original attribute name.
