Can I wildcard in dispatch move/rename file?

Daniel Rasmus Reite Jan 14, 2019 5:27 AM

I am currently trying to make a dispatch script which moves old revisions of pdm files to an "old pdf" folder. We name our PDFs as "Part number - rev - description" for production purposes. I have made the following script

When I do the transition I get an error saying that the operation was successful but returned false.

I suspect the reason is is that I'm using a wildcard after %d_filename%. I have to do this because the description and revision is different from version to version.

Could there be another reason it is not working, and what could I do to solve this?

Thank you in advance

Best regards

Hi,

Try instead of move file - copy and then delete old file.
If it does not work - perhaps the user has no rights for removal.
Still you can try to ignore the previous permissions in WorkFlow.

Still I did not understand, the file was copied and deleted, or not?
