The Back of the Sheet, With Hours
The PR Back lists the day's crew in the same departments, order and columns as the CS Back, and adds the times. Each row has Title, Name, IN, 1ST/O, 1ST/I, OUT, HRS and MPV. Crew on the call sheet are filled in when the report is first opened. Somebody added to the CS Back later is slotted into their department on the report too. The PR Front covers scenes, cast and film. See The Production Report Front.
Estimated Times
IN starts as the person's call time from the call sheet. OUT starts as the Crew Wrap from the PR Front. Both show at 50% opacity while they are still the estimate. Type a time and it goes to full strength. Right-click a changed IN or OUT cell and choose Reset to Estimate to put the estimate back. The 1st Meal Out / In cells show the report's own meal times, faded, until a row gets its own. Use them for the department that broke at a different time.
The Summary Strip and Scheduled Day
Above the grid, a strip shows Crew Call and the 1st and 2nd Meal Out and In. These are the same fields as the PR Front: change one here and the front shows it too. A Scheduled day box sits beside it, with separate hours for crew and drivers. It comes from Budgeted daily work hours in Globals. It is on screen only and does not print.
HRS
HRS is worked out from IN to OUT. An OUT earlier than the IN counts as the next morning. The meal comes off: the row's own 1st meal if both cells are typed, otherwise the standard meal length. When the call sheet has a second meal, one more standard meal comes off. HRS past the scheduled day print red, and those are the hours Hot Costs counts as overtime. Double-click an HRS cell to type a figure payroll agreed. Clear it to go back to the calculation.

MPV
Every called crew member starts at 0/0. The first number is penalties on the 1st meal, the second on the 2nd meal. Click the cell to pick each from 0 to 9. The report does not work penalties out from the meal times. You enter what happened.
Adding and Removing Crew
A blank line in a department reads Add crew... Pick someone and they go on the report and on the Crew DOOD for the day. A toast says so. Hover a row and click the X to take it off the report. The DOOD is left alone. Changes against the call sheet that went out are flagged in the margin.
Sidebar Controls
The floating sidebar on the right holds the page settings.
- Decimal Hours: shows times as decimal hours, so 2:30 PM reads 14.5. On by default. The choice is saved in your browser
- Show error flags: margin flags on anything the report still owes, such as a missing OUT. Screen only
- 1st Meal columns: hide 1ST/O and 1ST/I on days everyone broke together
- Columns follow CS Back: on by default. Turn it off to pour the departments into two or three columns of the report's own
- Lock after shoot day, and the lock for the day's report
Catering, Transpo and Notes
The Catering section carries the meal counts, taken the same way the CS Back counts them: Courtesy Breakfast, Driver Lunch, Cast/Crew Lunch and BG+Stand-In Lunch, each with its Meals RTS @ time. There are free-text boxes for Transportation Notes and Locations. When the CS Back prints the transpo table, the PR Back shows the same table. An edit on either side changes both. Notes / Remarks at the foot takes bold, italics, links and line breaks, and can be split into two columns for long days. Signature lines for the 1st AD, UPM and Producer print below it.
