The manual method of processing invoice as seen shortcoming ranging from slow services to inaccurate computations and poor records keeping. It is because of these problem inherent in the manual processing that led to the development and implementation of a new digital computer for the processing customers invoices named “Invoicing machine” or an invoicing software. The machine is programmed to calculate and print invoices from prepared to calculate and print invoices from prepared data carriers. Nowadays, different software firms are working towards developing a better and generic invoicing system which is the major concern of this work. The methodology adopted in getting information, personal interview and use of questionnaire. However a computer programme was designed to solve the problem of the study, after data analysis, the following findings were made:-

These problem inherent in the manual processing let to the development and production of a new digital computer between (1966 and 1973) for the processing of customers invoices. It was called “invoicing machine which is programmed to calculate and print invoices from prepared data carriers, nowadays developing a better and generic invoicing system are the concern of the different software firms and they are working towards it which the research work is dwelling on.
