German term

Entscheidungsformular

German to English Bus/Financial Management Business simulation seminar
Während des Planspielverlaufes kann Ihnen das Handbuch weiterhin als Nachschlagewerk und zur Unterstützung bei der Entscheidungsfindung dienen. Insbesondere die Erläuterungen zu den Auswertungen und zum ***Entscheidungsformular***, die Sie im Anhang finden können, sollen Ihnen helfen, die zur Verfügung stehenden Informationen zu nutzen und planvoll vorzugehen.

So far, I have come up with the following translation:
Throughout the duration of the seminar, the handbook would serve as a useful source of reference and facilitate the decision-making process. The appendix contains a commentary on the analysis and on the ***decision-making form***, which would help you to utilize the available information and plan your line of action.

Unfortunately, I do not have the 'Anhang' containing the 'Entscheidungsformular', so I don't know what it is nor have any idea what it looks like. I am not happy with my own rendering as 'decision-making form'. Any insights, please?

The sentence is taken from the handbook of a business simulation seminar ("Planspiel XXX"). The translation will be used by the seminar participants.

One possible rendering. Could also be a "decision form". Your suggestion of "decision-making form" works but is longer than necessary, IMHO.
