Use File Transfer Naming Templates
A file transfer template defines a set of conditions that affects how Reflection names files transferred between your PC and a host. Whereas transfer request files are used to transfer the same file or set of files between your PC and a host, file transfer templates affect how files transferred between your PC and a host are named.
When activated, Reflection checks transfer templates in the specified order, and tries to match the transferring filename to template conditions. When a match is found, the matching template is applied.
Reflection installs some default templates, but you can also add your own, and specify the sort order (using the and buttons).
