I am working on a custom application design which is going to be used for tracking the document (by physical location) & some short of billing.

I have gone through CakePHP & CodeIgniter but I am not sure if those are helpful to build up custom applications like this. Can anyone suggest a simple framework for me. I am looking forward to the below

simple functions to manage common activities like interacting with database, managing session etc.
Good security module with Hashing and other security features
In-build functionalities like data grid, pagination etc.

Any help is highly appreciated.

You would be better off starting with some existing document management system scripts rather than a raw framework.

If you do finally settle on using a raw framework, I would suggest Yii Framework. It is a well rounded and efficient PHP framework that follows some of the design principles of Ruby-on-rails and other such web frameworks. The learning curve might be a bit high though.
