How to close form after a certain number of submissions received?

    Is there some way to close a form when a certain number of submissions have been received?

    We have an awesome partner company that sends an email to their 1,500 employees with a link to our volunteer sign up Jotform https://www.jotform.com/build/81616778568171. Last time we sent it out, we had way too many people sign up for just a few volunteer slots we had available. We had to email many of them back and tell them they could not volunteer. Is there a way to set up this Jotform to accept only a pre-determined number of sign-ups per day?

    On the form referenced above, we have the number of volunteers we need for upcoming volunteer days under the question:

    What date would you like to volunteer with Education in Action?

    Hope there is an easy solution for this awesome problem :).

    Thanks,

    Monica

    You can disable the form after a certain submission count has been reached. This can also be disabled on a selected date. 

    Go to Settings > Form Settings > Form Status and change the required field from the drop-down and shown in the screenshot below.
