formalises
Puts in writing
Formalises is the British spelling of formalizes.
To formalise is to make something official or give it proper form: The two countries formalised their alliance with a treaty.
What was informal, implied, or loosely understood becomes explicit and binding.
You might formalise an agreement, a procedure, or a relationship.
