The Enclosure is to indicate that something was included with the letter. The item is also normally mentioned in the body of the letter, for instance, "I've enclosed a check for the required amount."
And then at the bottom:
Enclosure:
Check #134 for $100
All of the enclosures should be listed.
It serves as a reminder to both the sender and the receiver to insure all of the items were included.

RE:
At the end of a formal letter people write Enclosure- what is that for?

"Enclosure" has nothing to do with whether or not the letter was "formal"
Enclosure means that the writer has enclosed an item in the same envelope, such as a photograph, a clipping, etc. You should look for something more in the envelope than only the letter.

Surely they only write that at the end of a formal letter if there actually is an an enclosure???

Each of these five elements applies to the enclosure letter. (1) It may serve more than one interested group. (2) It serves various users (inside and outside the firm). (3) It serves several purposes. (4) It will be used differently by different people. (5) It is an important part of the records kept by a law office in its client files.
The letter that sends pleadings to the court for filing may also serve to send copies to those on whom the pleadings are to be served. This can be accomplished by including the parties to be served under the cc:, indicating that they will receive copies of the enclosures as well as copies of the letter.

Enclosure is to let the reader, recipient of the letter know you have enclosed something in the letter.
For example with a cover letter, a resume, then you would put in ( ) the number of pages included (enclosed)
A business complaint letter, a receipt of purchase.
Hope this is helpful, God bless*

You should also include a number after enclosure so they know how many documents...Enclosure: 2 and some even name the documents such as photos, license, letters...

Enclosures usually mean anything included with the letter like pictures, maps, directions or supporting documents. .

It is letting the receiver now that there is an enclosure or that something was included.

To let the person receiving the letter know what was enclosed. Just encase something happened to be missing or encase that person didn't notice that there was anything else with the letter.
