Bob Scott for The Progressive Accountant writes: Intuit will debut a wide range products for users of its professional tax applications before tax season. The ancillary offerings include an "intelligent digital organizer" to enable tax pros and their clients to know track missing tax documents and due dates. The plans were outlined during this week's Investor's Day by SVP CeCe Morken, who also noted Intuit's development of a global tax engine aimed at expanding tax services internationally.

Morken gave few details about the tax engine. She told attendees that "We are testing this technology in global markets in partnership with small business team."
