Note No.

Typically, an "Oficio" is a numbered, written communication (such as a letter) issued by a public official or institution, regardless of rank. However, in the private sector, one writes letters and memos (rather than "oficios") bearing the date and, perhaps, a combination of reference numbers and letters with which to identify the written item.
