I have this link to select everday, but the problem I'm running into is the date on the webpage changes everyday.  Is there way to only select for example "Arrivals"?

    1) capture the UI

    2), see if you can edit the UI to "contains" "Arrivals"

     

    Then the UI element should be dynamic to ignore the date.

    -----------------------------------

    If you can't get that to work, you can:

    Get currentdatetime

    Convert datetime to text %CurrentDateTime% to custom format ddMMMyyyy to %FormattedDate%

     

    Then use click on Text (OCR) to click on "PAR001ArrivalsW_%FormattedDate%.xls"

     

    Best of luck!
