AS/400s have been mostly POSIX-compliant for quite a few years. (If the AS/400 is so old that it pre-dates that, then we probably can’t help anyway.)

Both NFS server and client functions are available in a default installation of an AS/400. NFS client could be used by the AS/400 to access a share on a remote Unix system. Or the NFS server could be started on the AS/400 and a directory could be shared for access by the Unix system. Either way, automating transfers should start to become obvious from there.
