Norwegian term or phrase: opprettet i sak
the context is this followed by a colon and a set of numbers (I assume a case number, this is a police report), but I'm wondering if there's a standard translation for opprettet i sak? opened case? Thanks!

E&W the following > case reference generated
Explanation:
A translation search technique or trick for Norwegian I had originally been taught was to transliterate into Danish and look up the 'equivalent' - albeit oft-inconclusively - in Vinterberg & Bodelsen DAN / ENG: originally two volumes, then one bulky volume. I - years later - later noticed a distinct 'overlap' of the latter's translations word-for-word in Kirkeby's NOR / ENG dictionary series.

Otherwise these days, Norway not being part of the EU yet or ever, look up the elusive term Da-En on the IATE website. Irksomely, opprette i sag does display, but no translation is given - see the first web ref.

Explanation:
This means simply that something has been created og generated (opprettet) in a certain case.

It is not the case that has been generated (that would be Opprettet sak</I>)
