Italian term

modulo

Italian to English Marketing Retail shopping
"Inoltre alla stazione/cassa o all’area di spesa QB, sarà opportuno che l’operatore fornisca al cliente il modulo per la sua adesione al servizio di Self-scanning."

Obviously 'modulo' is "form" but I'm hard put to find the suitable adjective to go with it. Neither "registration form", "application form" or "membership form" seem exactly right for this context.

Thanks for any help,

Peter

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

self-scanning device registration form

Se ho capito bene dal contesto, trattasi del modulo che i clienti compilano affinché possano servirsi dello scanner portatile.

agree Monia Di Martino : Yes, it's a registration more than an application.

application form

I think the text is referring to the application form that you have to fill in in order to get access to that particular service ("adesione al servizio").

(application) form

I think your text is dealing with a paper form. Application is made for credit cards, passports, benefits and is subjected to approval on eligibility conditions, I think it may work in this case since you probably need to have a credit card and your application may be rejected.
Registration usually is welcome, it may be restricted to a number of people( congress) but it is used for unlimited online services

modulo/ form / application form

La parola modulo (dal latino modus, "misura") ha numerosi significati. Genericamente significa qualcosa di prefissato, di standard, destinato ad essere ripetuto più volte. Nel linguaggio corrente un modulo è una formula prestabilita con la quale vengono redatti certi documenti, o un prestampato di un documento da completare in alcune parti con le scritte relative al caso singolo. In generale può anche significare una parte autonoma e separabile di un complesso (modulo lunare di una navicella spaziale, modulo di un corso di studi, ecc.). In senso figurato rappresenta un modello, un canone
