Renaming local files

I am new to WinSCP and in my script I put a file to a remote directory but I want to rename the local version by adding YYMMDD in the file name. How can I accomplish this?

Do you mean you want to upload the file using its original name and after the upload archive the original local file by appending the timestamp to its name?

Exactly.

There's a very similar example available:

thanks but it doesn't tell me how to add the timestamp.

Well, that's not a task for WinSCP.
Simple google search will give you a solution.
