How to pick only current week files?
Hi,

My job will run every friday and it should pick only that week files.
For Ex: this 24th May job will trigger and it should pick 20,21,22,23,24.and 19th sun and 18th sat we dont have files to pick.
currently i am using the below code and it is working fine, but sometimes it is picking the last week file also i.e 17th which results duplicates.

ssh tr_ap@apalyn /usr/bin/find '/apps/trav/decrypt/archive/ApprovedReports*' -mtime -7


Please let me know is there any other way to pick only that week files.
Thanks in advance.
Kiran
