erittely

Erittely is a Finnish noun meaning the act or result of detailing, itemizing, or breaking something down into its parts. It is derived from the verb eritellä, which means to differentiate, specify in detail, or enumerate. An erittely provides a detailed account that clarifies components, costs, steps, or features rather than delivering a concise overview.

Common contexts include accounting and finance, where kustannusten erittely presents direct costs, overhead, and taxes separately; procurement and contracting, where erittelyhinta or erittely of invoices is used; and project reporting, where an erittely lists milestones, quantities, and resources. In technical writing or product documentation, tekninen erittely (or tuotteen erittely) specifies technical requirements, materials, performance criteria, and dimensions. In administrative or legal contexts, erittely can be a section that itemizes claims, invoices, or evidence.

Form and presentation: erittely is typically organized as a structured list, table, or appendix that accompanies a larger report or contract. The goal is transparency and traceability, enabling readers to see exactly what a total or conclusion is based on.

Note: erittely differs from tiivistelmä (summary). While tiivistelmä condenses information, erittely provides detailed breakdowns for audit, budgeting, or verification.
