You can create a layer call V-Score drawing lines where score is desired. Below is copied from altium help:

V-Scoring
V-scoring is a viable solution, which applies a v shaped groove between board sections on both the top and bottom sides of the panel, leaving a thin connecting web remaining. All of the details of this process, such as blade angle and web thickness, and whether to apply jump-scoring (areas where the groove is disconnected, making the panel sturdier), must be passed on to the scoring machine operator.

Currently, scoring machines require programming. Often this will be taken from non-CAD forms that you fill out indicating the data points and lines within your panel configuration. Some scoring companies will, however, be able to extract drill and line information from Gerber files, in which case you could design the scoring lines in the CAM Editor just how you want them. In any case, placing scoring lines on the top silkscreen layer will provide visual cues for the machine operator, which will be used in conjunction with the extracted and explicit information you provide.

Better to ask your fabricator.
Actually it is fabricator whos has to do the scoring and you only have to pass the information to him. so do it in the way(like dashed line is seperate layer or solid lines with dim etc.) your fabricator is able to get the inforamtion
