Hi Patrick, thank you for the reply. I will define steps to make things clearer. Flow is scheduled in Management console 9.2 to run daily at 6am. Flow has 16 file dependencies from a 3rd party provider At 6 am the flow triggers, the status of which is then 'running' The files arrive at 7 am The flow picks up the files and populates the data set. However, if the files do not arrive at the drop location the flow maintains a status of 'Running' at 6am the next day the following days flow will trigger at 6 am. Now there are 2 flows (today's and yesterdays) both with a status of 'running'. My worry is that when the files arrive both of these flows will run simultaneously and chew up the data. Thanks for the help, Regards, Jason

Hi, Thank you for the feedback, I don't think my question was specific enough. We are using D.I. Studio to create the SAS jobs and Management Console 9.2 to schedule the flows, the flows are monitored using Platfom Computings flow manager.

Hi, I hope someone can advise me on this. We have a number of SAS flows which are triggered by file drops. However if the files do not arrive (for any reason) the flows continue to run. As the flows are daily there is the potential for the same flow to run more then once at the same time this is dangerous for our data. Does anyone know how we can schedule flows and incorporate some kind of timeout that would result in the flow ending after a specific time period in the event of the trigger files not arriving? Regards, J
