Something similar Är dina meddelanden otydliga utan ett klart syfte? Innan du skickar nästa meddelande, fråga dig om det verkligen är viktigt för mottagaren och vad du förväntar dig för respons. Om meddelandet endast är för den andres kännedom, skriv det, t ex “För kännedom. Ingen åtgärd nödvändig.” Linguee Machine Trans “For your information. No action required.”

För kännedom utan åtgärd Hi, I would think that it stands for "För kännedom utan åtgärd"... a bit like FYI without action needed. But not sure about the English equivalent. Hope it helps you :-)

Agreeing with Michael..Did find.....2) The subject field, where you'll give a succinct indication of what your message is about. It is good practice to make the receiver of your email see straight away if (s)he needs to take action or just receive the information from you. You could use one of these words for this purpose: Re: = "regarding/referring to" or "in reference to"; FYI = "For Your Information" (no action required); Action = action is required and it would be good to also indicate the date the action is due; Urgent = this requires "Immediate Attention"; REQ = this is a "Request" for something

neutral Michael Larsson : :-)

agree Michael Ellis : You may wish to omit the superflous "No action required" or retain it to reflect the tautology often regretably used in corporate speak.
