Try using a FileMove action, you can change the name of the file.
Parameters :
FILE_FROM_FILE: d:/temp/file_a.txt
FILE_TO_FILE: d:/temp/file_b.txt

Hello
If the file name change (with a moving date), would it work with the key word * ?
Example
File_To_Tranfert_20171201.txt
the day after : File_To_Tranfert_20171202.txt

If we call it with File_To_Tranfert_*.txt is that ok?

Thanks

FILE_FROM_FILE => FILE_TO_FILE works with a specified constant name.

I'm not sure it is a good idea to rename File_*.txt to File.txt, because it would mean you lose files when there are several files matching the File_*.txt pattern.

Maybe you can use FileWait to ensure you get only the first file which matches the pattern:
- WAIT_FILE_DIR: /home/risson/datafiles/testmovefiles/
- WAIT_FILE_INCLUDES: File_*.txt
- WAIT_FILE_NB: 1
- WAIT_FILE_TIMEOUT: 1

=> Then bind this to a MoveFile action:
- FILE_FROM_FILE: :{FILE_DIR}:/:{FILE_NAME}:
- FILE_TO_FILE: :{FILE_DIR}:/MyTargetFile.txt
