Date/Time Variables
These variables are only supported in rename actions for agents. You can precede any of the date/time variables with the following symbols:
*Preceding a variable with a dot (.) results in replacing the variable with the current value. For example, {.dd} results in the current day, and {.hh} results in the current hour.
*Preceding a variable with an underscore (_) results in replacing the variable with the file’s ending transfer time. For example, if a file was downloaded on Monday, and if the event triggered a “file rename” action with a value of Report_{EEE} provided for the new file name, ActiveTransfer Server would rename the downloaded file to Report_Mon.
