A tag that is accessible across all tasks, programs, and routines within a project is referred to as a controller-scoped tag. This type of tag is designed to provide a centralized point of data that can be shared and utilized throughout the entire control system, ensuring that any program or routine can access the same information without needing to redefine it separately for different contexts. This enhances collaboration and consistency within the project, especially in complex systems where multiple routines may need to interact with the same data.

In contrast, local tags are restricted to the specific program or routine in which they are created, meaning they cannot be accessed by other parts of the project. Program-local tags are also limited in scope to their respective programs, and routine-scoped tags are even more limited, being confined to the specific routine where they are defined. Thus, these other types of tags do not offer the same level of accessibility and integration across the entire project as the controller-scoped tag does.
