    Not sure if anyone still monitoring this question but just in case:  Could I use this as a way to limit total purchases to multiples of 12?   I thought I could make the minimum order 12, but put in a message that says must be multiples of 12.  I can't find the condition options.

    I believe this is possible using the form calculation field.

    So basically, by adding the quantities entered by your customers on different products or items you can get its total quantity. Then create a condition that if the total quantity is lesser than 12, simply hide the submit button and a custom error message that tells them to correct their order and make sure it has a minimum of 12 quantity.

    Here's a cloned version of your form with this changes. If you like this solution, you can clone this form so you can use it and check how it is configured.

    So the only way to do it is up to 12?  Can't set it for multiples of 12?  12, 24, 36, etc.?  And just put in the error message that you must enter multiples of 12 in the total bottles box in order to submit the form.  Just like the required data feature, you can't submit the form without required name, address, etc.  So if I make the total box required in multiples of 12, with the error message that the box must contain multiples of 12, that seems to make this work.  But I don't know how to do that.

     

    And I would appreciate knowing how you set it up so I can recreate it myself.  The last time I used a clone, the clone didn't represent the most recent version of the form so I would prefer to make changes that I can make myself.  If it's too complicated for me or requires code, that's different and I thank you for making the changes.  But if I can do it myself with your existing tools, I'd prefer to know how.

     

    Thank you.

    Please take no further action on this issue, thanks!  I think someone else is also working on it.
