Is Daily Revenue Recongition Possible in BYD?

Question

If we want to do Daily revenue recognition, what is the best way. Scenario is we have a support contract for 1 year (365 days) which you bill up front and/or on a monthly basis but want to be able to recognize the earned revenue at any time not just at the end of the month – is this possible? Can you do daily revenue recognition so at any time during the month you could look at your deferred revenue and/or earned revenue and see what is correct amount for that period in time? Please advise if this is possible and if so, how to do it? Is it just in the setup of the contract/service entitlement or do you have to do a rev rec run each day?”

There's actually no imperative whatsoever to pre-determine the order. In fact, it might be a bit more fun if no-one knows what today's .mov will be
Oh, then that's easy. Pick a file at random
Here's a starting script - define the source and destination directories at the top of the script. It then picks a file at random, strips off that file's extension and locates all other files in the directory that match that base name (e.g. if it finds 'snowboarding.txt' as the random file, it then strips '.txt' and finds all 'snowboarding*' files.
It then duplicates those files to the destination directory. I know your original post calls for it to rename the files, but I'm not sure what you want/expect to happen there. I'm sure its do-able, just need to know what you want.
set sourceDir to "HD:path:to:sourcefiles" -- path to source files
set destDir to "HD:path:to:uploadsdir" -- path to watched uploads folder
tell application "Finder"
  set theFile to (some file of folder sourceDir)
  set basename to my stripExtn(theFile)
  set files2Copy to every file of sourceDir whose name begins with basename
  duplicate files2Copy to folder destDir
end tell
on stripExtn(filename)
  set {n, e} to {name, name extension} of filename
  set b to characters 1 through -(2 + (length of e)) of n as text
  return b
end stripExtn
