Why isnt my Emails to Send xlsx having the date appended to the filename?

 

Thanks.

Because it's appending to the sheet name, not the file name. You can try using a formula tool to create the full path before the output and then change Append Suffix to File/Table Name to change entire file path.

@wonka1234 the DateTimeToday() is a Date Type, you may need to change the data type to string using the below formula 

DateTimeFormat(DateTimeToday(),'%Y-%m-%d')
