Muistioon

As a grammatical form, muistioon marks “into the memo” or “to the memo.” It is used with verbs that indicate placing information into the document or directing attention to the memo, for example: “Lisätiedot lisätään muistioon” (Further details are added to the memo) or “Laadi muistioon kohdat” (Draft the items into the memo). In everyday and official language alike, muistio can function as the noun for the document itself, while muistioon specifies the destination or target of the action.
