Merge PDF adds suffix to file name

Does anyone know why Merge PDF adds a suffix to the file name and how to stop it from adding the suffix?

As you can see from this screenshot Merge PDF adds the number 291 at the end of the file name and this number increases for every job passing thru the flow.

I did some tests and the merge PDF seems to always use the name of the folder where the PDF's are in for the name of the output PDF.

My tests also show that the name of the folder that Assemble Job creates is not in the messages by default. The value for the "Job" column of the assemble job column is the name of the incoming pdf, not the name of the outgoing folder which determines the name of the merged pdf.

Can you manually check the name of the folder outputted by Assemble Job? You can change it in the assemble job settings.
