DatedFileAppender *doesn't* really have the same problem - there's no real "rollover" as such - it just starts writing to a new file. The dated file should be there from the very start, and you can grab that whenever you like. The only slight potential problem is that Java will still have it open for writing - but that shouldn't stop your billing tool from reading it.
