dokumentoitavaan

Dokumentoitavaan is a Finnish grammatical form derived from the verb dokumentoida, meaning to document. It is the illative singular form of the passive present participle dokumentoitava, which conveys the sense “to be documented” or “that should be documented.” In usage, dokumentoitavaan functions as an adjective modifying a noun in the illative case, typically in formal or technical language.

Formation and usage: The base idea is a participle that describes something destined for documentation. The form dokumentoitavaan appears when the modified noun is in the illative case, for example in phrases like dokumentoitavaan tietoon or dokumentoitavaan rekisteriin. Such constructions are common in administrative, legal, or archival contexts where items, data, or processes are specified as needing documentation.

Semantic meaning: The phrase expresses obligation or necessity—that a particular item or information should be documented. It does not stand alone as a common dictionary word but as a grammatical form used within larger noun phrases.

Examples:

- dokumentoitavaan tietoosi liittyvät vaatimukset (the requirements related to information to be documented)

- dokumentoitavaan rekisteriin tallennettavat tiedot (the data to be recorded in the register)

See also: dokumentoida (to document), dokumentointi (documentation), dokumentoitava (to-be-documented, passive participle).

Dokumentoitavaan thus represents how Finnish uses participial forms in combination with case endings to create precise, purpose-directed descriptors in formal writing.
