@Gary: I am already using GDG only in my regular job. Also we will not come to know how many time the regular job run for a day.

Having a new GDG will need to schedule a new JOB to run for end of day, which my user does not want ot have a new job.

You do not need a new job for a new output.file.DAILY.GDG. Just a new step to your current job. The new step can have a condition code [ie ,COND=(0,LE)] to bypass on "regular job" runs, and then take the condition code out on the last run of the day (or as close to midnight as possible).
