Midnight snack, anyone? I bet the developer who wrote this question was up all night trying to come up with a tricky scenario. C. Dynamic File Import is the way to go, no doubt about it.

I disagree, I believe option B) Scheduled Automation would be more suitable for this scenario.

Hmm, I'd go with A. File Drop Automation. That way, the system can just watch the FTP site and grab the file as soon as it arrives. No need to worry about the time or file name.

C. Dynamic File Import is the way to go. Who wants to stay up until 5 a.m. waiting for a file? Let the system handle it automatically.

Definitely B. Scheduled Automation. Having a scheduled job to check for the file and import it at a specific time would ensure a unique file name and consistent processing.

I think the answer is C. Dynamic File Import, since the file name needs to be unique for each import and the file could arrive at any time between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m.
