    I believe you are referring to the Form:

    https://www.jotform.us/form/92850765914164

    If you want to count the total headcount then you need to extract the report in Excel sheet and then filter reports.

    Let us know if you are referring to something else.

    Thanks.

    I need 2 things:

    1. the total headcount to remain at the number of people needing seats/food.  I will extract and count that separate.

    2. the question and issue at hand is how to adjust the pricing so that people know what to submit either in form of a check or quick pay.  the calculation now is # of attendees * $30.  What is needs to be is # of attendees * $30 LESS the people that qualify for FREE, the athletes, team manager and board members.

    How do I adjust for the total amount due BUT not modify the headcount.

    within the form only, as people fill it in, they will input the total
    headcount, then there will be a calculated dollar amount due.
    The dollar amount due needs to be adjusted for the headcount that qualifies
    for a free meal. that is the cheerleader a team manager or mp board
    member.
    I will extract the data separately to tally the totals.

    I did check your form and found that you have already added "Form Calculation" widget to calculate the total amount due. This is calculating with formula as (RSPV count * 30).

    We can help you achieve your requirement but would like some additional information from you. When you say "qualify for FREE, the athletes, team manager and board members." how do we know the number of people and the count who qualify for free. You do have a field "Are you a Team Manager or on the MP Cheer Board?", if yes is selected you want to less $30 from the total calculation? How do we found the numbers for athletes & board members?

    Do get back to us on this and we will try to help you with the conditions to achieve your requirement.

    We will wait for your response.

    also replied by email (same as below)

    The field to fill in the Cheerleader name is 1 person, so that is -$30

    The field Are you a Team Manager or on the MP Cheer Board? Selecting either from the options is 1 person so -$30
     
    Example.
    RSVP is 4 people.
    1 is a cheerleader
    1 is a Team Manager
    2 is other people (do not qualify for free meal)
    Total Amount Due needs to be $60.
