## 3.4 File Name Template Maintenance

File name template is used to define a naming convention for various types of files -incoming, outgoing, ACK-NACK and handoff messages.

File name template allows user to create the naming convention with the help of predefined attributes (like transaction name, format name, alias, date etc.). User can decide the order of these attributes as per naming convention and provide the length, padding characters along with the delimiter, if any. The naming convention aids the system in reading the Meta data from the file name and process the file accordingly.
