I would like to ask for the collective wisdom of the list to help me find a
descriptive word for a records management concept.

 

What would you call a group of closed files in a records series that are
ready to be - or are being - stored together for their prescribed retention
period?

 

For instance, a records custodian sends you, the Records Manager, a
transmittal form for approval that says he/she has 8 boxes of closed FY06
Inspection Records to ship to the commercial or company-owned records
storage facility for retention.  What term do you use to refer to that group
of 8 boxes?
