English translation:to make something an agenda item
Explanation:
this is Swiss-German and "Traktandum" is an agenda item, whoever made a verb out of it (traktandieren) God knows, but basically the sentence says that a particular matter (Verhandlungsgegenstand) was or will be made an agenda item...depends on the tense of the rest of the sentence

agree  Steffen Pollex (X): I am not sure about the word and, thereforre, have to agree. Seems to be pretty old-fashioned. But, definitely, the German sentence is not correct. It should be wether "verlangt haben", whether "verlangen kann/können" but no way "verlangen haben" (Grammar

  -> oder "verlangen zu haben", "zu verlangen haben"...
