I require a batch processing system that process a list of totals and balances carried over . This is for a billing program , but one of my requirements involve allowing the imput of data to be entirely random and processing can start only when all data is inputed . I have no idea on how to go about it .

your statement does not include a specific issue or request. the process of getting information will proceed more quickly if you provide more detail on your needs.
the only virtual 'request' i see might be in:
"processing can start only when all data is inputed"
which implies that you do not know how to determine this condition.
many apps simply use the input of a zero lengtht string to determins that a sequence is complete. typically, the process is to have a single textbox for user entry. when the <Return> is done, the app checks the input. if this is needed to be numeric - and it is, the value is copied to a 'list', the input is cleared and focus returned to the textbox. it the input is invalid, a message is give to the user and focus returned to the textbox. if the input is empty, processing continues with other processing (totaling the items in the list).

There is never time to do it right but there is always time to do it over
