Search for the some tutorial on the net,and analyze the problem and ask here the problem you are facing in the code or in the analysis.
Well as much ui know in the billing system you need to ;
1. Login to the system
2. Store the records in the database
3. Fetch the records from database and print it in a bill form
Hope this may help you.

Agreed. You should hired someone who knows how to do it. There is more to e-commerce than just having a How-to. Their are security concerns when dealing with a user's money and billing information, as well as privacy concerns.Weirdan wrote:If you're new to PHP and MySQL you shouldn't use it for mission critical tasks, such as billing solutions. Use the languages and technologies you know well.

Zerocool, my post was not to discourage you (I do believe jason's too). But don't you think it would be unfair to learn PHP in expense of your employers and their customers?
Billing solution is not the hardest ever software to write, mostly it's just what softsolvers said, but you must be wary and cautious at every step you take, every line of code you write. There's no excuses like 'I was unaware of this feature (such as register_globals security impacts)'. You must know all the ins and outs of technologies used. It's all about money, most probably BIG MONEY, and that money isn't yours. Thus you have no right to run the risk of it.
It's not the project to start learning from. Period.
