I'm creating a form. 1/2 of it is filled out by the user and then each reference has to fill out their own form (3 references max)
When the node is created, I need to email the references some new account information and somehow link their reference forms to the originally created node.

The scenario is for an MBA form. Applicant fills out a form and then the references are notified that this has happened. The references must log in to the system and fill out a form which at some point must be linkable back to the original form.

Also, I need to allow both the applicant and registrant to start the process, save, update and return.

Do you think I can do all of this with some already existing modules and some Drupal magic?

Thanks for any assistance.

Cheers,

Adam

I'm pretty sure you can do this with core plus a couple contribs. Off the top of my head I can think of 2 ways to approach it:

  1. use 3 separate content types and link them together via nodereference (part of core cck) and/or nodereferrer (cck contrib module) fields.
  2. use one content type, implement the different sections with cck fields/fieldgroups and control access via the field permissions and workflow required fields modules.

In both cases you'll also probably want the actions, workflow_ng, and possibly workflow modules.
