-f option is for checking file, whether its ordinary or not.
What exactly you want to check? only the existence, then try -r option, you can copy that.
Code:
echo "`date '+%Y%m%d_%H%M%S'` Getting ProductList.dat" 
if [ -f $DIR/ProductList.dat ]; then     
      cp  $DIR/ProductList.dat $TARGET_DIR/MigratedProductList.dat 
else     
      echo "`date '+%Y%m%d_%H%M%S'`ProductList.dat does not exist; Processing Terminated"     
      echo "***************************************************************************"     
      exit 1 
fi

DESCRIPTION

       grub-mkrescue can be used to generate a rescue image with the GRUB bootloader.

OPTIONS

       --output=FILE
	      Write the generated file to FILE.  The default is to write to standard output.

       --modules=MODULES
	      Pre-load modules specified by MODULES.

       --install-modules=MODULES
	      Install only MODULES and their dependencies.  The default is to install all available modules.

       --themes=THEMES
	      Install THEMES.  The default is to install the starfield theme, if available.

       --fonts=FONTS
	      Install FONTS.  The default is to install the unicode font.

       --locales=LOCALES
	      Install only locales listed in LOCALES.  The default is to install all available locales.

       --compress[=no,xz,gz,lzo]
	      Compress GRUB files using the specified compression algorithm.

       --directory=DIR
	      Use images and modules in DIR.

       --grub-mkimage=FILE
	      Use FILE as grub-mkimage(1).  The default is /usr/bin/grub-mkimage.

       --rom-directory=DIR
	      Save ROM images in DIR.

       --xorriso=FILE
	      Use FILE as xorriso.

       --grub-glue-efi=FILE

       --grub-render-label=FILE

       --label-font=FILE

       --product-version=STRING
	      Use STRING as the product version in generated labels.

       --sparc-boot

       --arcs-boot
	      Enable  ARCS  booting.  This is typically for big-endian MIPS machines, and disables HFS+, APM, sparc64, and "boot as disk image" on
	      the i386-pc target platform.

       --     All options after a -- will be passed directly to xorriso's command line when generating the image.
