vROPS Report to Network Share

Hi, I am cracking my brain on this one. I am trying to automate a report to a network share. The report is saved as a .csv. However, my challenge is to get it to save to a name of my choice and keep overwriting once a week without the prefix of the date and time and also without the suffix of the source I choose (for example: vSphere World.

Example:

I don't want this...

8-02-18 084018_000284 myreportname vSphere World.csv

8-09-18 084124_000267 myreportname vSphere World.csv

8-16-18 084015_000173 myreportname vSphere World.csv

I want it to be like this...

myreportname.csv

myreportname.csv

myreportname.csv

---

I want the file to keep getting overwritten weekly.

I found something in process of scheduling the report but I am yet to test to see what it does. See below:

Any help would be appreciated.

I don't think that level of tweaking is possible. You're probably going to have to use a script to watch that directory (or fire just after vROps dumps its report there) and do the rotating/renaming as needed.
