What interties needed to settle difference in inventories items (difference between Records and Counting)?

A records inventory is a survey of all of the types of information created and received in an organization. The inventory is typically done as the first step so the records management program can understand what is being kept, in what volume, for what purpose, by what offices and programs. Records inventories are used to collect the information needed to create records schedules and file plans and the information needed to establish and improve records storage, maintenance, and disposition programs. Records inventories are often done at the start of a new records management program, when planning for a move or a digitization program, and when updating a records program.
