Using the “Report Rule” we can set the P.O. filename in the Report Document Archive to something a bit “smart”, like “SUPno-PO-Pxxxxx ”. Nice! But what we’d also like to do for the benefit of our vendors, as we RMB - Send Order, is send them a “smartly” named file. The IFS attached PDF default filename is a concatenation of the Report Title and Result Key; which may as well be a random number. Is there a way of defining the e-mail attached PDF’s filename? Thanks!

Well, as it turns out, IFS decided this issue is a Bug and and corrected in Apps 10 UPD 9 onwards. We are on Apps 10 UPD 8 going to Apps 10 UPD 10. Our UPD10 testing caught the filename difference. A little confused, we submitted a case to understand what changed:
What you are experiencing is based on a Patch (Bug ID: 151107) which is included from Apps 10 UPD 9 onwards. The bug description is as follows,
Bug Title: PDF File Name when sending email from purchase order and other documents should be renamed as <Report_Title>.<Order_No/Invoice_No
RnD Solution: Technology has provided a new parameter called PDF_FILE_NAME through bug 116342 (Apps 8 onwards)for PDF_REPORT_CREATED event. The report title together with the Order_No/Invoice_No will be passed to this parameter whenever a report is emailed. The correction focuses only reports generated using the RMB Email <report_title>.
