Trigger a scheduled job (that has a destination of FTP) manually and job will fail with error "FTP unable to connect at yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss. Error occured sending FTP data"

Case letter of the name of the folder is not the same from BizX side and FTP side. For example, the Directory set in BizX is "/Outgoing" while on the FTP side it is configured as "/outgoing".

Capitalization is important to non-Windows machines. FTP servers are usually Unix-based, which have case sensitive file systems.

Entry for Directory (in Report Distributor FTP Configuration) should have the same capitalization. Example, if the folder "/outgoing" is configured in the FTP server, "/outgoing" should be also set in BizX setting.
