The option to export a custom report with a custom filename through code would be useful.

Currently, when exporting a report, the filename is assumed from the report name. It is time-consuming to manually rename each exported file. If it were possible to build the filename through code, it would save time when exporting a large set of reports to send to customers or vendors.

Example of currently exporting three custom sales invoices:
Sales Invoice.pdf
Sales Invoice(1).pdf
Sales Invoice(2).pdf

These would be more helpful:
S-INV 101010 - Customer A.pdf
S-INV 101011 - Customer B.pdf
S-INV 101012 - Customer C.pdf

Would save a lot of time if the printed report (to PDF or Word) would have filename with document ID instead of the template name.

for example a Sales invoice (V-ORD20-12345_YYYYDDMM_HHMM)
