Latest IntelliConnect Enhancements
The groundbreaking IntelliConnect research platform continues to provide thorough, trusted information enhanced with innovative and efficient search capabilities. Several new enhancements optimize the research experience, including:
- Practice Areas – Subscribers may customize their research experience by saving smaller sections of content on the Browse Tree into Practice Areas. Once set up, subscribers can target any of their customized practice areas when searching.
- Federal Legislative Smart Charts – The Federal Tax Legislative Developments Smart Charts are an integrated, customizable resource for tracking federal tax legislation. The charts include summaries of all legislative provisions with access to in-depth explanations and analysis, impacted Internal Revenue Code sections, full text of laws and committee reports, and relevant client letters.
- New Home Page – Enhancements to the IntelliConnect home page make finding important content and information easier than ever. In addition to the Tip of the Week, Featured Tool, training and contact information, and exposed Browse Tree, the new IntelliConnect home page includes an expanded Tax News and Highlights section and links to popular federal and state government websites.
- Enhanced Tax Tracker News – Improvements to CCH's Tax Tracker News, such as top line links and an improved customization set-up, make it easier to hone in on critical information.
- Categorized View – Based on strong, positive feedback from tax professionals, IntelliConnect's newly released Categorized View feature is now the default view for CPA firm subscribers and available for all users. This convenient option automatically displays search results by document type, including explanations, laws, regulations and more. While the top three relevant search results for each document type will appear under a document type heading, users can easily view the entire list of relevant results for each document type by clicking "View all."
IntelliConnect subscribers can also look forward to the all-new Library View, coming in early 2012, when IntelliConnect will also provide an optional view that displays content by topical area on one screen.
