Rename files before they are delivered to destination

Q: For a particular transfer job, we have a need to rename files before they are delivered to destination. What we really need is to append the time and data to the file name before file extension. Can you please let me know how can I use this option efficiently to achieve what I am looking for. Example

Actual file name: Data0018.dat

Final file name at destination: Data0018<hhmmmmddyyyy>.dat

Test setup of customer:

A: Please use our file rename option in your Destination setup:

RegEx:   (.*)\.(.*)

Replacement:   \1%TCD:HHNNMMDDYYYY:.\2
