I wanted to run Job on a maestro scheduler automatically every business day whenever the file is a available on a specific file share. The job needs to run once only on a given day as soon as it sees the file. in the sense I don't want Job to run forever as I don't have write access on the publishing folder.

SCHEDULE Server1#Jobstream1
ON RUNCYCLE RULE1 "FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=1"
:
 Server1#Job1
 EVERY 0060
 OPENS Server1#"\ns-abc1app1abc.CSV"
END

Here is what I wrote,how do I add a dependency to run only once daily?

EVERY 0060 means that the job have to run every 60 minutes. If you want to run once a day you have to remove the EVERY 0060. Like this:

SCHEDULE Server1#Jobstream1
ON RUNCYCLE RULE1 "FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=1"
:
 Server1#Job1
 OPENS Server1#"\ns-abc1app1abc.CSV"
END

To start checking only at a given time, add an AT dependency, on the job or on the schedule, specifying the starting time. This will also improve the system performance since the check on the file will start only at the specified time.

If the file will not come every day, consider using UNTIL time ONUNTIL SUPPR to suppress the job after the specified time

For more complex scenario consider also the EDWA (available since TWS 8.4) or the new STARTCOND (introduced in 9.4 FP1)
