It depends on your shell. Which shell are you using?

Assuming from the syntax that it's sh, bash, ksh, or similar, check for a .profile, .bashrc, or .bash_profile in your home directory - typically a profile or login script is run when you log in.

Add this to your .profile :
Code:
export CONGA=/users/BANK1/basic/queues/SARON_SPACE1
