This is a multi-select list of the absence categories (for example Sick Leave, Family Reason, Medical Appointment) that are made available to Students/Parents on the attendance intention submission form. Only the categories selected here appear as choices; any absence category that exists in the system but is not selected here stays hidden from the self-service form.
