Overwrite PDFs with a new one

I save pdf reports as my parts serial number directly to my network. Operator scan a barcode in an input comment and I use variables for reporting and printing locations. I have a yes no comment asking of the part is a re test and if yes, it adds the system time at the end of the serial number to differentiate reports on my network.

So I may have a report with a failing feature by 0.0001", operator then cleans the part thoroughly, maybe re calibrates the probes and re runs the same part using the same serial number. So when they do that, they say yes its a re test when prompted and then we get a new report with the added time hopefully passing this time.

ex.ABC001.pdf which failed and then ABC001_12.30.pdf which may still be failed or passes if they are lucky.

Is there a way for pcdmis to overwirte the previous serial number if the run the same serial number again? This would get rid of adding system time to the end of my report file names.
