IntelliConnect research documents are organized in a Tree View or Library View and include tools to help you locate related news, full-text source documents, and analysis.

You can do the following in the IntelliConnect window to locate additional information:

  • Browse. Browse for content directly from the Browse menu, which is an organized list of all of the content to which you subscribe. The Browse menu can be displayed in Tree or Library view.
  • Search. Use the Search bar to search the entire library, or you can target specific content areas for your search by selecting them from the Browse menu. You can narrow your results by doing a search within a search.
  • Filter. Use filters to narrow your search results to meaningful areas of interest. For example, you can narrow your search results by selecting a specific document type, a tax type, a menu level on a library, and a specific jurisdiction.
  • Link. Link to tax news and highlights. The My Favorites feature allows you to save IntelliConnect documents as shortcuts. Shortcuts can be saved as document links within IntelliConnect or as external links in other applications.
