Can Attendance Flagging thresholds be set so that students do not receive a red flag at their first class absence (if it's at the beginning of the semester)? I would like them to be flagged red once they have been absent for 75% of their total class time for a semester (12 classes, 3 absences). Students who have missed 3 classes in a semester are in danger of failing their course, so this is where I would want the flag to be applied by the system, but a student who is 2 weeks into their course and has missed one class due to an excused absence does not concern me as an advisor (and yet, the way flagging thresholds are currently configured means that every student that missed their first class is automatically flagged [they have missed 1/1 classes], since it fell within the 0-75% range) - can system flags be set to accommodate this type of tracking?
