file and register in the court records
Explanation:
"Enter" is an instruction from the judge for the order to be entered in the court records, that is, filed and registered.

"When the order is signed, the winning party needs to make sure that it is entered by the County Clerk and that a copy of the signed order with notice of entry is served on the other parties to the lawsuit. It is this service that starts the clock running on the thirty (30) days in which the losing party can appeal.
Entry in this context is defined as the formal filing in the County Clerk's Office and recording in the County Clerk's records of an order or judgment after it is signed by the County Clerk. The “entry” date is the actual date stamped by the County Clerk on the original order or judgment. After a justice or judge signs an order, the court clerks usually arrange to have the order sent to the County Clerk who then “enters” it.
In order to have an “entered” order to serve on his/her adversaries, the winning party must get from the County Clerk a copy of the order that’s been signed by the judge/justice/County Clerk with the entry (filed) date stamped on it."

No, I don't think there is supposed to be anything written after the colon. "Enter" means "Enter this in the record".

Sometimes it is followed by the date, as in the following example:

"ENTER this ______ day of _____________________, 20__."
