1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 -- Total of Objects select count (*) from "AO_8542F1_IFJ_OBJ" -- Total of Object Schemas select count (*) from "AO_8542F1_IFJ_OBJ_SCHEMA" -- Total of Object Types select count (*) from "AO_8542F1_IFJ_OBJ_TYPE" -- Total of Object Types atributes select count (*) from "AO_8542F1_IFJ_OBJ_TYPE_ATTR" -- Total of object ticket connections select count (*) from "AO_8542F1_IFJ_OBJ_JIRAISSUE"

Cause

The reindex window also accounts represent the sum of Objects, ObjectSchemas, ObjectType, ObjectTypeAttributes, and ObjectTicketConnection which is why the number of objects displayed is expected to be higher.
