You should schedule your CustomAction inside the Merge Module. When the Merge Module is merged it will be put in the correct sequence in the final MSI. The MSI SDK has more information about sequencing CustomActions in Merge Modules.

WiX Users, I have an MSM that defines a set of "CustomAction" entries. The MSM is merged into the MSI, and it is my responsibility to execute the MSM's custom actions. Unfortunately when I compile my project, light rightly complains: C:\xxx\yyy.xml : error LGHT0112 : Unresolved reference to symbol 'CustomAction:foo' in section 'Product:12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012'. It would seem that the CutomAction's in an MSM are not available from the MSI? It is essentially this issue: [ 1541952 ] Unresolved Reference error when using CA declared in MSM The original response seems to be: "You cannot create references from products into merge modules." Why is this the case? Is someone able to clarify why products can't reference or call custom actions in merge modules? Any guidance is much appreciated.
