I would not bet my business on a database-driven webapp to be written by someone who's never done it before. Not in a million years.

The first thing to do is to acquire full understanding of the requirement. That means translating the spreadsheets into plain logical English, then enlarging that description to include desired features, and finally developing a database model of that requirement as described eg in http://www.artfulsoftware.com/dbdesignbasics.html.

Once you have that document, get it reviewed for logic & consistency by a professional who knows database-driven webapps, and fix the errors he finds.

At that point, it can be said that you have a basic understanding of the requirement, and you have a choice: teach yourself how to write it, or hire someone else to.
