    Welcome to the forums.
    When you export you are given the option to add a prefix to the file name. You can add the date here. As far as I know there is no way to automatically add a suffix (at the end of the file name) automatically and that might be done most easily with a batch file after export.

    There's a free app out there called Rename-It Master that works rather well if Dimitri's Tip Doesn't do the trick for you.

    I agree w/ Dimitri, that there isn't a way to automatically add a suffix w/ Revit. Whenever I need to rename / add suffix or prefix, Bulk Rename Utility works great.
