Dispatch files are named in this format:

where:
- DDDDD is the interchange ID issued by the German Federal Statistical
Office for reporting SSD records where the transaction indicator is
Dispatch. This data is located in [tax_parms].[ssd_dispatch_interchange_id],
- REFBZR is the reference period, using the Print
Period from the EU Supplementary
Statistical Declaration Report in the format yyyymm,
- DATE is the current date in the format yyyymmdd.
- TIME is the current datetime in the format hhmm.

When the filename and the message ID are identical, the file is stored
in the top-level element envelopeId.
