+Force cloud-free conditions
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Q: The SCC misclassifies dense aerosol layers contents as cloud. What can I do if I'm sure the corresponding measurement is not affected by clouds.
+
+A: It is possible to set as cloud-free any measurement submitted to the SCC. If this is done the automatic cloud mask will be always produced and stored in the corresponding CloudScreen product but it will be in the further SCC data processing. In this case, the corresponding SCC products requiring as input the cloud mask will be labelled as manual cloud-screened. 
+There are three equivalent ways to set as cloud-free an already submitted (and processed) measurements: 
+
+1. From "Data processing", click on the measurementID corresponding to the measurement you want to set as cloud-free, then clock on "Edit in Admin" and finally check "Manually Assumed Cloud Free"
+
+2. From "Admin", click on "Measurements", click on the measurementID corresponding to the measurement you want to set as cloud-free an finally check "Manually Assumed Cloud Free"
+
+3. From "Admin", click on "Measurements", select one or more measurments you want to set as cloud-free, select "Manually Assumed Cloud Free/Not Cloud Free and Reprocess selected measurements" in the action list located at the page bottom and finally click on "Go". 
+
+In all the cases the processing on the corresponding measurementID(s) will be restarted automatically.
