I have a collection of .zip files (ie. AB_170203, BC_180203) that I would like to move from one drive to another for archiving purposes. I have a tester set up to separate the .zip based on date and now I just need the .zip's to move.

Writer Parameters

File Operation:MOVE

Copy Source Folder: No

Copy Subfolders: Yes

The process will complete but nothing moves.

For the FILECOPY writer, you'll have to specify the following three parameters for each incoming feature:

filecopy_source_datasetContains the source filename (wildcards are supported)filecopy_dest_datasetContains the target directoryfilecopy_dest_filenameContains the target filename. Empty = preserve source filename
