I have been searching everywhere but nothing matches exactly and most posts are old and I believe I am missing something with the variables portion of automator. I am looking to rename a pdf inside a folder called "output" that is inside a folder that is named job # and then client name. I get some of this to work by using path variable but I dont need the complete path.
Example:
65974 Client Name inside that folder are other supporting folder but I need the PDF that is inside the "output folder" that would be renamed form "65974 Part 1.pdf " to be "65974 Client Name_65974 Part 1.pdf" This file would then be copied to another hotfolder for our other systems. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Below is an actual file setup
