    Hi,

    As you can see attached, I limited the forms to 18 places and I have 36 submissions. Do you have an idea of what's happening?

    You will find below the gsheet with submissions:

    It appears that you have three 'Jeudi' options which have '18/17' counts each, if you have updated the Appointment Slots Widget while it was already in use, the available options might have been reset. 

    When you publish a form with Appointment Slots or Inventory Widgets, it is best to not update it to avoid resetting the available items count.

    Hi Huberson,

    Thank you for you answer. We follow your advices and create one Appointment Slots Widget for each day. It's almost working but we still have a couple of errors like below (38 instead of 35).

    Hello Alexandre,

    I'm not really sure what would cause this, other than an update in the Widget available items. The second Screenshot appears to be from a Spreadsheet, if you integrated Google Spreadsheet then update the form after, previous values from the Widget will still be preserved in the sheet.

    If you are updating the Widget configuration, you need to integrate a new Spreadsheet for each update, otherwise it will always appear in the same sheet, like more submissions where made than what available.
