Monitor copying partial files

There's probably a setting for this that I've just not found yet. As files are delivered to one machine I want to copy them to another one. I'm using Real-time Sync for this. But it starts copying the file as soon as it appears and while it's still being created. No doubt the file was being delivered and writes regularly flushed to disk thus the file appearing before the creation was complete.
It ultimately did manage to recognize when the creation was completed and copied the file again, leaving me with the full/intact file. But that seems a waste to copy the source file while it's still being created.
I do see a setting for Real-time processing delay. But depending on the connection, the file creation on the source machine could take several minutes.
