To succeed in a course, attendance is usually mandatory and only a specific number of absences is allowed.
With Classter you can notify students (and/or their parents) when this absences limit is met.

In the pop-up window, follow the next steps:
- First, you need to make sure that the notification service is enabled.
- Choose the notification type, in this case “Total Absences Notification”.

- Select the Template to be used.
- (Optional) Choose the Template for internal communication.
- Select the Partner Template.
- In the “Notification Recurrence” field, we define how many times the notification will be sent.
