Open Reports and read each report

Steps

1. Click Production in the sidebar, then choose Reports in the picker at the top of the page.

   The Scene Report opens first. Its columns are Sc (the scene number), Heading, I/E · D/N (inside or outside, day or night, for example INT · N), Pages (in eighths, for example 6/8), Location, Cast and Scheduled. A scene not yet placed in the schedule reads Unscheduled.

   It has one row per location, with Location, Status, Address, Scenes and Shooting days. Status shows where the location record stands, for example From heading or Idea. Scenes lists the scene numbers shot there, for example 1, 3, 4, 6, and Shooting days lists the days.

6. Click Breakdown Completeness.

   One row per scene with Sc, Heading, Confirmed, Suggested (unreviewed) and Status. Confirmed counts the breakdown elements you confirmed.
