Source Notes

This manual was built from Clearline tenant behavior plus these upstream references:

SourceUsed For
SENAITE Core PDFSENAITE API/core behavior and platform terminology

SENAITE InstallationHosting and installation boundary; Clearline handles this for customers

Clearline-Specific Interpretation

Clearline LIMS is customer-facing hosted software. Customers should not use upstream installation instructions as operational procedures. Clearline manages deployment, hosting, upgrades, backups, routing, and tenant-level customization.

Upstream docs sometimes use older names such as Bika, SENAITE, Analysis Request, AR, Client Contact, or COA. Clearline documentation uses plain customer language where possible while preserving terms that appear in the UI.
