I have a question which may seem naive but while I have extensive 
experience in creating/working with a Retention Schedule, that experience 
is limited to my current employer. 

Is it necessary to list an "Office of Record" at all? 

Isn't that the purpose of a Functional Schedule, to concentrate on the 
documents rather than the name of the department that is responsible for 
them?      Department names change.   Reporting structures change. Would 
you not have to update your schedule every time one of these changes 
occur?
