The abandon interval will be a larger value if you are utilizing the return email feature.  Return email allows you to send a customer an email with a coupon after a certain amount of inactivity.  The coupon is valid up until the abandon interval is exceeded.

Helpful Notes

• The abandon interval is the same field for both the Abandon Interval and Return Email screen. If you change it on one screen, it will update on the other.
• The abandon interval is calculated from cart inactivity. It is not affected by the Return Email duration. For example, if you have a Return Email duration of 3 hours, and an Abandon Interval of 6 hours, then the cart is considered abandoned after 6 hours, not 9.
• Sending a Return Email does not reset the inactivity counter. Only customer interaction with their cart resets the inactivity timer.
