How do we come to know the Source data/file is
ready/Updated in the source location, when the session is
scheduled for @12:00AM and ready to run its job ? or Can we
schedule the session, when the source is updated in source
location without any time constraint?

Answer Posted / vinod

This may help for flat files.

this may be done using the event wait task.

1) upload the src file wiht a touch file.

2) schedule ur job at perticular time.

3) in wf use the event wait task.

4) event wait will wait for touch file, once it get the
touch file, it will start the load.
