Note: If a student is absent for less than the ContactMinutesUpper their rounded Absence Factor may be 0.0 or 0.5, depending on the ContactMinutesLower configuration setting and the ContactMinutes configuration setting.

Default value

The default value is 270. If a student is absent for more than 270 minutes their rounded Absence Factor is 1.0.
