Thanks for your help on this one. Not sure why I thought the "wanted" routine would return more than one result. So I've removed the foreach(@array) and removed the nodirs() preprocessing 
    find( { wanted => \&get_files }, "$BASEDIR/$dir" );

    sub get_files {

        return unless ( -f $_ );
        my $tmpfile = $File::Find::name if ( ($_) && ( (/^(?!\.).*\.($
+INTYPES)$/i) || ( (/^(?!\.).*\.($INTYPES)\.($ENGZTYPES)$/i) && !(/\.(
+$OUTTYPES)\.($ENGZTYPES)$/i) ) ) );

        if ( ( exists( $globalfiles{$tmpfile} ) ) && ( ( $globalfiles{
+$tmpfile} ne 'submitted' ) || ( $globalfiles{$tmpfile} ne 'working' )
+ ) ) {
            return;
        } else {
            if ( -e $tmpfile ) {
                my $lckfile = getlckfile($tmpfile);
                push @tmparray, $tmpfile unless ( -e $lckfile );
            }
        }
    }
