    How to copy files from an FDA regulated equipment without modifying

    Q: We are trying to run a copy of files from an FDA regulated equipment to an external NAS. That part we’ve got down. Works great.  The item that I have not figured out is that since these are regulated devices. Files cannot be modified. If they are, there’s an issue. Is there a way so that if a file has been modified on the source, it is NOT copied to the destination NAS with the same name, but instead is copied with a rename function tied to is (such as extending the name with ‘changed-yyyymm hhmm’) or similar.   Newly created files, would be copied with their original names in place. Only modified/changed flies would be renamed. Would this have to be a second copy rule or can we do all of this within one. Thanks for the assistance.

    A: this option is available under the “File & Directory” tab of your Windows as Destination setup:

    • Please adjust “File Options” to: “Add dot datetime (pre-ext) suffix if exists”. DateTime suffix format will be YYYMMDDHHNNSS.
      • This “Add dot datetime (pre-ext) suffix if exists” option was added in v2023.7.10.0

    Q: How to move a folder tree and files when the subfolder matches my criteria. I want to move a folder tree (with his files) from « home » only when the level 2 subfolder match “pour_ftv_editorial”.  The source is FTP and destination is Windows folder.

    Limagito  check the source folder « home »

    Limagito move in the destination folder « home_out »

    • SOURCE (FTP)

    • Destination (Windows Folder)

    A: This should be possible using the following “Directory filter”:

    • Enable “Include Subdirectories to allow us to scan the subfolders of your Source.
    • Enable “Exclude Basedirectory” because we don’t want to pickup files from the Root Source folder.

    limagito file mover subdirectory filter

    • As Include Directory name filter we will use: */pour_ftv_editorial/*
