I have seen some scripts that put the file over with a temporary name then rename. This also protects from jobs on the destination server attempting to process file still in transit.

Once the remote rename is done the file can then be moved to a transfered folder, for eaxample:

Code:
put ORD049382.20141106 tmp_transfer
rename tmp_transfer ORD49382.20141106
!mv ORD049382.20141106 tmp /var/orders/transfered/


Here is an attempt at putting Don Cragun's suggestions and this change all together for you:

Code:
#!/bin/bash
source /opt/foobar/$1/config/usrconfig.sh
source  /opt/foobar/$ENV/config/$2

### foobar environment variables ###
export FTPHOST="sftpserv.foobar.com"                 # server to ftp to
export FTPUSR="usmssh"                               # ftp user id
export FTPPASS=""                                    # ftp user password
export PATTERN=                                      # pattern for file name to ftp
export USING_MARKER=no                               # using a marker file???
#export TDEMARKER="X"                                # pattern for marker file if no files to ftp
export FTPDIR="prod/TDE/in/"  # directory to ftp to on ftp server
export DAEMONLOG=/opt/foobar/$ENV/log/TDEdeamon.log
export DAEMONSLEEP=10
export CURRDATE=`date +%Y%m%d`
export READDIR=/opt/foobar/$ENV/data/TDE/output
export TEMP=/opt/foobar/$ENV/tmp
export TDE_BACKUP=$APP_ROOT/data/TDE/backup/

if [ ! -d "$READDIR" ]
then
    echo "Directory $READDIR not found!" >>$DAEMONLOG 2>&1
    exit 1
fi

cd $READDIR
sleep 2

> tde_batch
find $READDIR -type f -name '*.ready' | while read file
do
  real_file="${file%.ready}"
  echo "put \"$real_file\" \"$FTPDIR/trans.temp\"" >> tde_batch
  echo "rename \"$FTPDIR/trans.temp\" \"$FTPDIR/$real_file\"" >> tde_batch
  echo "!mv \"$real_file\" \"$TDE_BACKUP/\"" >> tde_batch
done

if [ ! -s ./tde_batch ]
then
     echo "No ready files found in $READDIR" >>$DAEMONLOG 2>&1
     exit 2
fi

echo "quit" >> tde_batch
sftp -b tde_batch "$FTPUSR@$FTPHOST" >>$DAEMONLOG 2>&1
mv tde_batch "$TDE_BACKUP/tde_batch.$CURRDATE"
exit 0

RENAME(1)							   User Commands							 RENAME(1)

NAME
rename - rename files SYNOPSIS
rename [options] expression replacement file... DESCRIPTION
rename will rename the specified files by replacing the first occurrence of expression in their name by replacement. OPTIONS
-v, --verbose Give visual feedback which files where renamed, if any. -V, --version Display version information and exit. -s, --symlink Peform rename on symlink target -h, --help Display help text and exit. EXAMPLES
Given the files foo1, ..., foo9, foo10, ..., foo278, the commands rename foo foo0 foo? rename foo foo0 foo?? will turn them into foo001, ..., foo009, foo010, ..., foo278. And rename .htm .html *.htm will fix the extension of your html files. WARNING
The renaming has no safeguards. If the user has permission to rewrite file names, the command will perform the action without any ques- tions. For example, the result can be quite drastic when the command is run as root in the /lib directory. Always make a backup before running the command, unless you truly know what you are doing. SEE ALSO
mmv(1), mv(1) AVAILABILITY
The rename command is part of the util-linux package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/. util-linux June 2011 RENAME(1)
