Custom Default Report Naming

Enhancement description:

Allow admins to define report naming conventions for downloaded & emailed reports for all records.

What are we trying to accomplish?

Customize and/or simplify the naming of downloaded or emailed files.

How is the lack of functionality affecting the business?

Some records, (SCOs for example) have confusing naming structures and require a lot of editing before downloading or emailing records. This step could be eliminated if admins could customize this in record settings.

Suggested implementation:

Add a file name setting (for each report) to Portfolio Settings > Record Settings > {Record Type} > Reports. Allow admins to (optionally) customize the name of downloaded or attached reports using strings and variables.

    Totally Agreement with Brendan's reasons, except I would just like to simplify the naming for files. Just just the acronym in lieu of the long for of the name, i.e.: PCO, COR, PCCO, RFI, etc. When the title in in the file name with the description it make the file name very long, especially when the description is long.
