FTP target file with date and time qualifier

I am trying to ftp a file from mainframe to wintel server, I am using a JCL to transfer the file.

The requirement is to have name of the target file unique each time transfer occurs, for this I plan to append the date and time as suffix to the file name, so that the file name generated each time is unique.

“; ; ; ;

The following is the JCL that I am using.

//FTPSTEP EXEC PGM=FTP

//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*

//INPUT DD *

ip address

m/f user id

m/f password

put ‘Source_file’ Target.file.YYMMDD.HHMMSS

quit. /*

//OUTPUT DD SYSOUT=*

Can someone help me in meeting the above requirement?
