A memorandum is a document that has the function of reminding another person of something. The best way to know what is a memo for, is knowing the applications it has.
For this we must be clear that a memorandum It is to give a reminder about a specific activity or topic, concerning the person or institution to which it is directed.
This document is also known as memo although it can have different applications as it is used.
