Autotext in Publishing name and Publishing Directory

Basically I want to control all publishing related items via 'info'. I put in the clients lot, street name, Suburb...

The PDF Name should be as follows
#lot, #streetname, #suburb, #clientnames - Contract Plans
Resulting in
111, Jeorge Street, Westy Bank, Ben and Ella - Contract Plans.pdf


The publishing folder should be
C:\#year\#lot #streetname, #suburb, #clientnames\Plans
Resulting in
C:\2017\111, Jeorge Street, Westy Bank, Ben and Ella\Plans

Now it's a set and forget on the template.

Yeah, that's what I was referring to, however I have found that if you want to have a merged file with an auto generated file name, it won't work.
If you could have the parent folder rename the child folder using:
<PROJECTNUMBER>-<CLIENTNAME>-<SourceItemName>-<CURRENTREVISIONID>
so that the Job number, Client name and Revision was automatically applied to a merged file, then our lives would be improved greatly.....
