How to have a question that allows the user to schedule a recurring event

Hi All,

 

I'm trying to build a form that allows the user to schedule a recurring event. It will basically be to allow departments to be request a certain amount of finances for expenses during a given period. Some examples would be they can request once a week to allow for $250 in expenses. So every week they are allotted $250 on Monday. Another would be once a month starting on the 15th they are allotted $500. I'm going to push this to our SQL DB and manage the logic on a web service, just need help on how to build out the form.

 

Thanks in advance,

    I'm thinking something like this.
    1. Frequency - Once a:
    Week
    Month

    2. Start Date:

    3. Amount per recurrence:

    4. End Date:

    I'm wanting to limit them to only once a week / month so it shouldn't be too difficult. Any input or suggestions?

      xelleman you can't limit a response with Forms to be submitted only once a week or only once a month.

        I'm not wanting to limit the requests. They will request a cadence within the form. I'm managing a threshold on the times they can request outside of forms.
