If the mtime shown with ls -l was manipulated, ls -lc will show it (it shows the ctime, the last change of the attributes).
Thanks MadeInGermany.
Thats is the issue. Some process creates the file with date of 1 day ago but is created or modified in all cases the nex day.
This is for the last 5 file
So I think the solution is to change the hour for cron job to run after 10:00 am for example.
Many thanks for all the help to all of you!

Hi RudiC, what you says is probably what is happenning, but I don't know which would be the other directory where files could be created and the copied to the other directory next day.
For now I think running the cron job later would fix the issue.

volmgt_root - return the volume management root directory
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lvolmgt [ library ... ]
#include <volmgt.h>
const char *volmgt_root(void);
DESCRIPTION
This function is obsolete. The management of removable media by the Volume Management feature, including vold, has been replaced by soft-
ware that supports the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL). Programmatic support for HAL is through the HAL APIs, which are documented on the
HAL web site. See hal(5). The return value of this function is undefined.
The volmgt_root() function returns the current volume management root directory, which by default is /vol but can be configured to be in a
different location.
RETURN VALUES
The return from this function is undefined.
ERRORS
This function may fail if an open() of /dev/volctl fails. If this occurs a pointer to the default Volume Management root directory is
returned.
EXAMPLES
Example 1 Finding the Volume Management Root directory.
To find out where the volume management root directory is:
if ((path = volmgt_root()) != NULL) {
(void) printf("Volume Management root dir=%s
", path);
} else {
(void) printf("can't find Volume Management root dir
");
}
FILES
/dev default location for the volume management root directory
ATTRIBUTES
