Hi,

Try if condition as below

if [[ $TIME -gt 0800 ]]
then


fi

Your problems are at lines 45 and 54, you're missing the '$' sigil for the variables:

if [ $WAVE_COUNT -gt 10 ] ; then
            echo ''>$DEST_DIR/ExecuteWave.log
            RUN_CHECK=0
        
        else
            #check for Campaign Contact file
            CAMPAIGN_CONTACTS_FILE=`ls $SRC_DIR/ATHENIAN_IF927_LoadCampaignContact_*.dat`
            CAMPAIGN_CONTACTS_COUNT=${#CAMPAIGN_CONTACTS_FILE}

            if [ $CAMPAIGN_CONTACT_COUNT -gt 10 ]; then

BTW, you can use

: > file

to truncate/create a file, instead of using echo.

Run the script in debug mode, add this line below the the line #!/bin/ksh:

set -x
