Service note - an example of writing

A memo is a model of documentary circulation within an organization, which makes it possible to effectively respond to all sorts of circumstances.

Purposes and types of service document

A service letter is intended to notify a certain official of existing difficulties or to make any suggestions regarding production issues.

In addition, the service document is a kind of confirmation that the staff is not only doing their job, but also sees the existing problems, which are subsequently highlighted in this note. At the same time, the employee who wrote a memo to the manager about the presence of any violations completely disclaims responsibility for resolving this issue.

Service notes are divided into:

  • those in which certain factors of the act or phenomenon of a negative nature are indicated. Such production notes include explanatory, memorandum, acts on detected violations and complaints;
  • those that are additional explanations to the main documents. These can be notes on writing off or purchasing materials, on the allocation of financial assistance, on promotion, on bonuses, and the like.

In turn, the official census can be carried out both between subordinates and the employer (internal), and between the heads of structural divisions and the main head of the enterprise (external). Externally, production documents are intended to be provided outside the organization, the recipient of this type of note is the higher management.

Information and form of internal business paper

The content of official documents usually covers production, material, economic issues, as well as issues of bonuses, promotion or demotion. Thus, an employee of any department can apply with a written request to provide him with certain material or financial resources, both for production and for personal use. In addition, the content of such a document may highlight a complaint against a specific employee or direct supervisor.

As for rewarding employees, the direct employer writes a memo in the form of a petition addressed to his superior. Where he highlights the merits of a subordinate, and makes suggestions on ways to reward.

An intra-production letter to the head of the organization from subordinates is drawn up by hand in free form. However, to write this kind of document, you can use computer or printing equipment.

Proper writing of a document

Although this act does not have a sample established at the legislative level, it must necessarily contain the following information:

  • to whom this application is addressed (position, surname and initials of the addressee), is indicated in the upper right corner of the document; note number and date of registration;
  • the name of the letter being composed;
  • the introductory part, usually reflects the time, date and time of the incident;
  • the main part, the detailed essence of the event is stated;
  • the final part, includes the proposals of the compiler, which he asks the head of the enterprise to implement;
  • under the text is the date of writing the document, the position or profession of the compiler, and his surname and initials.

As for external letters, they should have a similar content, be drawn up on the letterhead of the institution, preferably in printed form, using computer technology.

Many enterprises have a ready-made memo template developed and approved by management. Thanks to which, it will be much easier and more competent for workers to draw up such a documentary act.

In internal and external letters, information should be stated concisely and clearly, without unnecessary water. Thus, the time of the person making the document and the person to whom it is addressed is saved. And also a clear presentation of proposals contributes to the most rapid response from the head.

Formation of production letters in electronic form

Many enterprises allow the preparation of memos using a computer, which allows you to create an electronic form of the document. This method of registration, each structural unit chooses independently, and prescribes this in certain documents provided for by law. Thus, the electronic version greatly simplifies the preparation of the document and its sending, which significantly reduces the time for reviewing the note and taking response measures.

The electronic method of compiling a business letter does not differ much from the handwritten version, but still has the following differences:

  • in the electronic document, it is not necessary to indicate to whom it is directed, since such information is already written in the address bar;
  • the signature of the originator in the electronic note is put automatically (pre-prepared scanned signature);
  • the sender receives a notification from the addressee that he has received the letter and read it. This service is a confirmation of sending a note.

One of the main advantages of creating an electronic form of a note is an already existing template. Which can be used in subsequent drafting of similar documents. This advantage is enjoyed by the services of the enterprise or their individual workers, who, by their nature of activity, must often draw up memos.

Compilation aspects

When compiling memos, it is necessary to take into account the following nuances, which apply depending on their type and purpose:

Compliance with the above nuances will allow even an inexperienced employee to draw up a competent and understandable memo for the manager.

Significance of the document

Service documents help to avoid direct conflict situations between employees of a certain enterprise, which positively affects its work. They also play an important role in accounting and tax reporting, where financial problems require some attention and compliance with various nuances.

Among other things, office letters are effective in combating offenders in the organization. In addition, writing complaint documents to the employer allows you to resolve the issue without disputes and assault. Since office complaints can be written anonymously, or simply the name of the compiler, at his request, will not be announced by the head.

Therefore, such a document serves as a multifunctional tool, thanks to which most organizational issues can be resolved in a fairly short period of time.
