Use a timestamp to name export files

[OliverR]

Another request we get frequently is the ability to use a timestamp as a filename for an exported file. That way a user can do multiple exports over a period of time. This can be handy in the case of recurring inventories, to easily compare between inventories on different dates.

Again, I know there is the Custom export option, but that involves too many steps and is not user friendly for the average novice user. I also know Connect has the option to prefix a filename with a timestamp, but a number of our customers don't use Connect, because they don't need it. They have enough with a simple .txt export on their device, but would like more flexibility in easily naming the files.

Hi Oliver,

I will add this to our feature request list. Generally, we treat the device level import/exports as the simpler versions of data exchange while recommending TP Connect as the preferred method of syncing data involving more complex requirements.
