Subtracting a value from another form

Subtracting a value from another form

Hi,
I have a form called performances which has 3 numerical fields:
  1. Number_of_Tickets_Available
  2. Number_of_Tickets_Allocated
  3. Tickets_Remaining
I have another form called Tickets_Allocated. This form pulls the values of the three numerical fields from the performances form. This form also has a numerical field called:
  1. Number_of_Tickets
The user will add a number into this numerical field. When I submit the form Allocate_Tickets, I want to add Number-of_Tickets to the Number_of_Tickets_Allocated field on the performance form. This then subtracts from the Number_of_Tickets_Available to give the Tickets_Remaining value.

As I am allocating tickets, not all tickets will go to the same customer, so I might have 100 tickets available and allocate 10 to customer A. Then I might allocate 15 to customer B and so on.

Is there a way to do this?

I scheduled campaigns twice to be sent at the recipients time zone and the campaigns are deploying at the wrong time. When communicating with Zoho support they said to make sure it was scheduled at least 24 hours in advance so we did this with our last campaign and it was still deployed at the wrong time.
