Creating Tagging Exports: Breakdown Summary, Element Report, & Category Report

Tag and Breakdown Reports

You can export tag and breakdown reports as PDF documents or fully manipulatable CSV documents.

📝 NOTE: Tagging is an Industry Pro feature.

With your script open, tap Tagging on the Top Toolbar to enter Tagging Mode.

✅ TIP: Learn to customize the Top Toolbar to always show the Tagging tool, if you want.

📝 NOTE: The default will add the report title to the end of the original file name.

Select where to save the Report. PDF Reports can be saved locally in Scriptation or to any Cloud Folder; CSV Reports can be saved anywhere using the native Share menu.
The Report will now open in Scriptation, and you can share it with your team.

Quickly see every tagged element in a scene-by-scene breakdown. See below for a description of the Special Categories highlighted in this screenshot:

Three special categories appear in particular places in Breakdown Reports.

Scene Description – a summary of what takes place in the scene for easy reference.
Story Day – sometimes called a Continuity Day, refers to the day within the timeline of the story that the scene takes place.
Scene Notes – overall notes that may apply to the whole scene and not necessarily a particular category.

Generates a report that lists every tag organized by category.

A Category Report is the same as an Element Report, except you can choose which tagged elements you want included in the report.
