bin/console runs maintenance tasks on the server. Run it as the account user that owns the installation, with the same PHP version as the web server:
cd /home/user/billing
php bin/console <command> [options]On CWP, use the domain’s PHP version, for example /opt/alt/php-fpm83/usr/bin/php bin/console cron.
