    That is not possible. However, you can create your products in the Inventory widget. 

    Here's what you need.

    1). Set the payment field as a "User defined amount" as we will be passing the total calculated amount into that field.

    2). Add the inventory widget field

    3). Pass that value to a form calculation widget https://widgets.jotform.com/widget/calculation

    4). Pass the total value in the form calculation widget into your payment field by assigning the field to get the value from the form calculation widget https://www.jotform.com/help/275-How-to-Pass-a-Calculation-to-a-Payment-Field.

    With your form, I cloned it and made a sample here https://form.jotform.com/91047324442956.

    Feel free to clone it https://www.jotform.com/help/42-How-to-Clone-an-Existing-Form-from-a-URL so you can see how I applied the suggested method above.

    You need to and and use the Form Calculation widget, please check this guide: https://www.jotform.com/help/259-How-to-Perform-Form-Calculation-Using-a-Widget

    However, the quantity is not showing up in your Inventory widgets:

    I cloned the form, and cleared the forms cache, but the widgets never loaded. I will forward this to our back-end team. You will be updated via this thread.

    There is no estimated time-frame for a resolution. So, I have deleted all widgets, and recreated it again from the scratch. Here is my clone version: https://form.jotform.com/91055269895975 

    If you want to use another form, you can clone it if you want to: https://www.jotform.com/help/42-How-to-Clone-an-Existing-Form-from-a-URL
