How do you trigger an event or function after a certain time?
For instance, someone ordered something online and it has a payment due date of February 13 7:45AM. When the customer haven't paid anything before this date, his order will be automatically cancelled.
I don't know how to start coding that kind of situation.

Normally, a cron job would be used to manage tasks like that; though MySQL does have its own timed event scheduler
