Is it me? Surely there should be one "Business File Plan" and then all the other elements that are "defined" as "xxx *file plan" *within the taxonomy are actually just *elements *of said "Business File Plan" - i.e *objects* of it, not "File Plans" in their own right - it cannot make sense to have *896*"file plans" - that way madness lies, for certain....!! There should be *one file plan* that contains all the *objects. *The point of a taxonomy should be to provide clarity rather than increase confusion.
