Bug Challenging task : script for mailing process completion timing report to users.

Hi all,

This is my first post.
I am new to unix scripting.

My requirement is as follows :

We are using a financial backoffice application.
Now at the end of day we have send users a status report stating all timings of EOD processes for all countries.

I need timings for following :

1. Timings of file generation for countries.
2. EOD process start time AND end time - This we take by logging to unix .then accessing the backoffice application and then we make some option choices to get elapsed times.
But these timings are dynamic.
3. Once the files for all countries reach our server ,they are sftp to dstination server .We receive a mail in outlook regarding the timing when files reach these servers.we need to write these timings in this report and send it to users.

Are there any suggestion on how this complicated task can be accomplished.
please help if you have experience on the same task .
contact for any concerns.

NAME
mysqlbug - generate bug report SYNOPSIS
mysqlbug DESCRIPTION
This program enables you to generate a bug report and send it to Oracle Corporation. It is a shell script and runs on Unix. The normal way to report bugs is to visit http://bugs.mysql.com/, which is the address for our bugs database. This database is public and can be browsed and searched by anyone. If you log in to the system, you can enter new reports. If you have no Web access, you can generate a bug report by using the mysqlbug script. mysqlbug helps you generate a report by determining much of the following information automatically, but if something important is missing, please include it with your message. mysqlbug can be found in the scripts directory (source distribution) and in the bin directory under your MySQL installation directory (binary distribution). Invoke mysqlbug without arguments: shell> mysqlbug The script will place you in an editor with a copy of the report to be sent. Edit the lines near the beginning that indicate the nature of the problem. Then write the file to save your changes, quit the editor, and mysqlbug will send the report by email. COPYRIGHT
