What type of inventory completes 100% if all items are counted in a single inventory event?

Counting every item in the inventory in one session is a wall-to-wall inventory. This approach covers the entire set of items at once, so you achieve 100% completion and a precise baseline for accountability. Cyclic inventories count subsets on a rotating schedule, so they don’t tally every item in a single event. Random sampling uses a subset to estimate totals, not a full count. Spot-checks review a small selection to verify processes but do not inventory everything at once.
