PowerShell script to copy and rename log files

I have a script written for copying our BES-5 log files to a compliance software package. I need help modifying this script to work with the log files BES-10 produces. Currently our logs look like this:

smslog_yyyymmdd.csv
pinlog_yyyymmdd.csv
PhoneCallLog_yyyymmdd.csv

This is the naming convention our compliance software wants it in.... BUT our new log files look like this:

New BES-10 logs:
BES-10_sms_1.0_20150102_0001.csv
BES-10_Phone_1.0_20150102_0001.csv
BES-10_bbmmessage_1.0_20150102_0001.csv

So in short I need this:
BES-10_sms_1.0_20150102_0001.csv ---> smslog_20150104.csv then copied to a queue folder and an archive folder renaming the file to:
BES-10_smslog_20150104.processed

Here is the code that works with our BES-5 environment:

$emailServer = 'email_server_address' #smtp server
$yesterday = (get-date).AddDays(-1)
$yesterdayString = $yesterday.tostring('yyyyMMdd')
$datepath = $yesterday.ToString('yyyy\\MM\\dd')
$pathVal = "Z:\$yesterdayString"
$archivePath = "D:\Scripttest\BBlogs\archive\$datepath"
$smsfile="smslog_$yesterdayString.csv"
$pinfile="pinlog_$yesterdayString.csv"
$phoneFile="PhoneCallLog_$yesterdayString.csv"

if (-not (test-path $archivePath)) {mkdir $archivePath}

foreach ($file in ('smslog','pinlog','PhoneCallLog')) {
    $source = "$pathval\$($file)_$yesterdayString.csv"
    $targets = "D:\Scripttest\BBlogs\queue\$($file)_$yesterdayString.csv","$archivePath\$($file)_$yesterdayString.processed"
    foreach ($target in $targets) {
#write-host "Copying $source to $target"
        copy-item -Path $source -Destination $target -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
        if (-not (Test-Path $target)) {$failure += 1} else {write-host "Copy successful"}
    }
}

$msg = "SUCCEEDED" ; $priority = 'normal'
if ($failure -gt 1) { $msg = "FAILED" ; $priority = 'high'} 

Send-MailMessage -SmtpServer $emailServer -To alerts@domain.com -From alerts@domain.com  -Subject "BESLOG's Transfer to ZL : $msg " -Body  "BESLOG's Transfer $msg"  -Priority $priority

BES-10_sms_1.0_20150102_0001.csv will always be
BES-10_sms_1.0_<DATE>_0001.csv??
Think I'm still a bit confused...
Original source file is BES-10_sms_1.0_20150102_0001.csv
You need that copied to the queue folder as smslog_20150104.csv
and then copied to the archive folder as BES-10_smslog_20150104.processed?

How did we get from _sms_ to _smslog_ ?

ASKER

one is BES-5 (the original script) and the new file is from BES-10 the new one I need.
Can you clarify tho?  Are there 3 versions of the same file?
BES-10_sms_1.0_20150102_0001.csv  (original)
smslog_20150104.csv (queued)
BES-10_smslog_20150104.processed (archive)
Yes that would be correct. the file would change names twice. once to be ingested by the compliance software. (smslog_20150104.csv ) and again in the archive folder (BES-10_smslog_20150104.processed)
The issue is the compliance software will only ingest a certain format:

for instance the SMS logs need to be smslog_yyyymmdd.csv. They cannot or will not accommodate another naming convention. Blackberry with version 10 changed the format of the log files, they also state that this is not configurable. So since both sets of logs have to have the same name I am force with running 2 scripts staggering the time they run to allow ingestion of the previous server's log files before the next set are put into the queue folder.

Wow that almost worked on the first try! Here is what happened.. the sms file copied to the queue folder was "sms_20150119.csv" it needed to be "smslog_20150119.csv" the archive file created was correct "BES-10_smslog_20150119.processed".
So, z:\20150119\BES-10_sms_1.0_20150119_0001.csv
should be copied as:
d:\Scripttest\BBlogs\queue\smslog_20150119.csv
d:\Scripttest\BBlogs\archive\2015\01\19\BES-10_smslog_20150119.processed
