Bill, vital records have a life span just as other records, depending on  why 
and how they are protected. The schedule should reflect wether a record is  
vital since any change in retention could have an effect on the vital record. 
As  an example,  a payroll register may be vital and kept for ten years. If it  
is vital a copy may be sent to a vault or other secure repository and 
replaced  by a new payroll register as issued. Thus a backup copy of the register is  
always available for resumption of business as needed. So vital records can 
be  cur/supr or retained for a specific period of time. Short answer but I hope 
it  provides some guidance.
