Email Report File name with timestamp

Hello,

In BIP 11g part of OBIEE, we know that for FTP destination file name, we can add a format mask like _%d etc. to add a date/time stamp to the file name.

Recently a user asked whether we can do the same while scheduling a report that gets emailed and the emailed file name should have similar suffix of a YYYYMMDD or similar.

I am pretty sure this doesn't work with emails, but are there any workarounds?

Thanks,

Manish
