By the way, try that one:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
SOURCE=/appcfg/COLOURSERVE/OUT
DESTINATION=/symlnks/io/jobs/workflows/TAG-461/Conde_Nast_Output
cp -r $SOURCE/* $DESTINATION/
echo Done.

It copies all files from the source directorye to the destination ( your script moved them - not so good) and when the job is done the script reports "Done."
