Hi there,
first, thank you for this wonderful Software and the active User-Forum!
Tldr;
I loose files by the end of the month using %Month-macro.
My questions are:
1. Is there some secret syntax, such that I can use something like %Month(-1) to monitor the previous month?
2. Might the "Ignore Time Shift" option somehow propagate to the %Month-macro, so I can use it?
3. Do you have any other solution or workaround ?
More details:
I'm looking for a solution for the following Scenario:
I use a software which collects environmental data at a certain sampling rate.
It writes files - say every 10minutes in a new file an stores it in a folder hierarchy
/year/month/YYYY-MM-DD_HHmm.xyz
I use FFS Macros and Windows-Task-Scheduler to send these files daily from a local machine
to a sftp where the folder hierarchy should not be present anymore.
eg:
C:\Data\raw\%Year%\%Month%\ --> sftp://server@files.domain.org/Data/raw
The problem is, that the environmental-data-software creates files with some delay.
That means that the last file in a month-folder might be
/2022/01/2022-01-31_2350.xyz
but has actually the created time stamp
2022-02-01_00:10
That means by using the FFS macro above, this file is not synched because FFS already looks in the folder for the next month.
Thanks in advance, Robsnn
