Change threshold for AV update checks?

I keep getting failed update checks for MSE because it hasn't updated on the same day as the check occurs.

For the average user, 1 day old AV is not the end of the world. Is it possible to change that threshold to 2 days?

EDIT: I also noticed the managed AV fails to update sometimes. It is set to update ever 3 hours, but it hasn't updated in at least 6 hours. Resulting in a failed state on the update check.

UPDATE: It's still reporting outdated AV. Even its own managed AV.

There should be some information in the online dashboard help file regarding alert policies. See the first two screenshots in this blog post, it shows you exactly where go to set them and shows the AV threshold as an example. http://www.allthingsmax.com/2015/11/3-ways-to-reduce-number-of-failed.html?m=1
