You can enable journaling on the directory. They you process the journal in real time.

This is just a matter of curiosity. I have applied triggers to database
files, but I was wondering if it was possible to apply a trigger to a
non-QSYS folder in the IFS? That is, possible application, which I'm
thinking about, is if a file is dropped into \FolderJA could I have a
trigger program that would automatically be invoked to process files in the
folder?

I've never heard of such a thing, and I agree that it would be very
useful. If there is, and nobody's told me about it, I'd sure like to
know about it as well.
