-    Generate a file system path for the compliance output directory of a prowler scan.
-
-    This function constructs the compliance-specific output directory path by combining
-    a base temporary output directory, the tenant ID, the scan ID, and details about
-    the prowler provider along with a timestamp. The resulting path is used to store
-    compliance-related output files generated during a prowler scan.
-
-    Note:
-        This function depends on one external variable:
-          - `output_file_timestamp`: A timestamp (as a string) used to uniquely identify the output.
-
-    Args:
-        output_directory (str): The base output directory.
-        prowler_provider (object): An identifier or descriptor for the prowler provider.
-                                   Typically, this is a string indicating the provider (e.g., "aws").
-        tenant_id (str): The unique identifier for the tenant.
-        scan_id (str): The unique identifier for the scan.
-
-    Returns:
-        str: The constructed file system path for the prowler compliance output directory.
