List files after a certain filename
Requirement:

I need to ls all files based on date timestamp after a trigger file

In the below example, I need to pull only files uploaded after orders.bmk by date timestamp ascending.

Code:
ORDERS_0000000009877468.txt
ORDERS_0000000009877464.txt
ORDERS_0000000009877460.txt
ORDERS_0000000009876439.txt
ORDERS_0000000009877454.txt
ORDERS_0000000009875452.txt
ORDERS_0000000009877448.txt

ORDERS_0000000009875450.txt
ORDERS_0000000009877404.txt
ORDERS.bmk
ORDERS_0000000009877398.txt
ORDERS_0000000009880031.txt
ORDERS_0000000009877392.txt
ORDERS_0000000009873563.txt
ORDERS_0000000009877386.txt
ORDERS_0000000009877382.txt
ORDERS_0000000009877378.txt
ORDERS_0000000009876435.txt
ORDERS_0000000009877372.txt
ORDERS_0000000009875448.txt

Is it possible to do it in one line command? My ETL tool only accepts one line commands.

Yeah, but how did you create this list? I have a command that can produce the expected output but it requires the list you have shown to be in a file or to be the output of some command.

Okay what is the command for file, I can move those into file

/home/data/orders.txt

sed -n '/ORDERS.bmk/,$ {/ORDERS.bmk/!p}' file | sort -t_ -nk2,2
