Hi,

there is one job which is running frequently and generating file in target. my requirement is how to suffix timestamp with the file name.

Example:
file_name_2008_11_24_12_49_14

that means filename_yyyy_mm_dd_hh_mn_ss format.

thanks in advance

You just need to pass in the timestamp as a Job parameter and reference that in your file stage.

need to suffix timestamp in the file name as the job finish timestamp.

Then you'll need to do it "after job". Write to a static name and add the timestamp after the job finishes.

my problem is to name the file as per the finish timestamp of the job.

lets say job finished at 11/26/2008 3:34:11 PM. so my file name should be like filename_11_26_2008_3_34_11_PM. the timestamp is dynamic so we can't pass the timestamp as the parametere in the job properties.

Understood. Suggestion was to use the current time, not a Job Parameter. A script called "after job" could easily do this.
