Restricting the number of forms submissions?

    I'm creating a booking form for a client. She'd like to restrict the form so that once all the seats are filled the form is no longer available, replaced by a "sold out" message.

    I know the form can have a restricted number of submissions, but this doesn't help because most people will book more than one seat at a time. The number of form submissions won't match the number of seats.

    Is there another way to restrict the number of form submissions via another numeric field?

    There isn't a built in way to do what you describe. You would have to do this using custom PHP. You would have to query the entries for that form and calculate the total of the field containing the number of people. You would then have to do an if statement to display the form if the max number hasn't been reached, and display a message if it has. So you would have to do this as a customization using custom PHP.
