Copy Multiple Files add Date Stamp
Altair EmployeeI have the below.
Six input files to be copied to a folder that is a named export (ignore that it says email in the image.)
This is not a problem and works just fine.
What I would like though is to add the date to each file name. (ex "Test" becomes "Test120517")
I know how to do this for a single file, but I'm unsure how to proceed with multiple files.
They do not work their way through a Workspace or Model just a simple copy.
Thanks-

Altair EmployeeCraig,
You can accomplish this by using either the standard process design (SPD) or the visual process Design (VPD)
In a VPD configure the hub's File input processing to individually
Configure the distribution and add &[Source.name] macro followed by the date macro in the rename as box.
In SPD configure the input tab in the project editor to each in its own job
Add a copy distribution and add the &[source.name] macro followed by the date macro in the rename file as.

Altair EmployeeKenjie Bermundo led me to the solution above. Using [souce.name] in the rename field.
