[SOLVED] ReportCaster FTP - file extension with dynamic name

Good afternoon,

I'm trying to schedule a report to be casted via FTP that has a variable name in the filename, however, when I do this the file gets created without the period in the extension. Below are the settings I'm using and what I'm getting as output, as you can see the .xlsx gets turned into xlsx without a period. Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong?

That looks correct to me. Maybe to debug put the &STAMP at the beginning of the name &STAMP_CANCEL_RC


Thank you for using Focal Point!

Thank you, I tried that and got a more useful error, it did not like the underscores or the period because it thought it was part of the variable name. Simple adding a space fixed it. Thank you
