There is a second, quieter use in offices, labs and schools: the write-up is the written version of work you have already done — "I've finished the experiment, now I just need to do the write-up." Both come from the same idea, that write up means to take rough notes or raw events and turn them into a proper piece of writing. Stress the first part: WRITE-up.
