# How can I automatically follow up after absences?

## Easily chase and check in on absentees with the ‘Consecutive absences’ notification – here’s how to use it

### Setting your absence threshold

Before setting up your notification, you’ll need to set how many sessions missed in a row should trigger it. To do this, head to **Organisation setup \> Settings**, enter the number under ‘Notification settings’, and click ‘Save’.

### How to enable the notification

- Navigate to **Communication \> Notifications**
- Select the ‘Timetable’ Notification category
- Enable ‘Consecutive absences’ using the toggle (ON = right, OFF = left)
- Customise the following options: 
    - Timing – when the notification should be sent. For example, 1 hour after the set number of sessions has been missed
    - Limit to – choose if you would like this notification to only apply to certain classes or events. Leave blank to apply to all
    - Recipients – select whether the notification should be sent to the account owner, specific staff members, or both
    - Delivery method - whether the notification should trigger just an email, or a timeline message (online portal/app notification) as well
