Default Predefined file name options?

Hello Everyone,

After hours of Google searches I hope someone can help me with what I think is a simple question.

Can you predefine a file names in Word, Excel and PPT?

Basically, my company, like so many others has a huge internal file systems...and like most, ours needs to be totally reorganize every year because people can't (or dont want to) respect the file naming rules.

Our rules are as follows: "year-month_File_name_xxxxx_xxxxx..."

or

"2013-11_Sales-report_for_client"

As easy as it is to follow, people don’t and it’s a huge issue. So does MS in all its winsome and glory have a feature that will block or reject all entries that done follow the preset format? Granted they can still include the wrong information but at least it will be in the correct format!

Thank you all!!

Jason
