märkusaruanne

A märkusaruanne, which translates to "memorandum report" or "notes report" in English, is a type of document used in various professional contexts, particularly in Estonian business and administrative environments. It serves as a brief, often internal, record of discussions, decisions, or key information pertaining to a specific matter. Unlike a formal report, a märkusaruanne is typically less structured and focuses on conveying essential points efficiently.

The purpose of a märkusaruanne can vary. It might be used to summarize the outcomes of a meeting, document a decision made by a team or individual, or outline the initial findings of a project. It often acts as a preliminary or supplementary document, providing a concise overview before more detailed analysis or formal action is taken. The language used is usually direct and to the point, avoiding excessive jargon or elaborate phrasing.

The creation of a märkusaruanne can be initiated by any member of a team or organization who needs to document or communicate specific information. It is not usually a mandatory or officially regulated document in the same way as, for example, financial statements. Its value lies in its simplicity and its ability to quickly capture and disseminate important information within an organization, thereby aiding in communication and record-keeping.
