PLANO, (Tex.) ' Intuit used the New York CPA, Business & Technology Show & Conference to unveil a lineup of planned offerings designed specifically for accounting and tax professionals. The lineup includes two new professional tax software offerings: One designed for smaller sole proprietors; the second for the needs of practices focused on helping taxpayers get their refunds fast.

The new ProSeries Basic Edition was designed for smaller, new and part-time tax firms who specialize in 1040 and state individual tax returns, and includes all the forms and worksheets needed for 1040 and individual state returns, navigation checklists, and built-in step-by-step guidance to help complete client forms.

The ProSeries Express Edition is designed for professionals who process a significant number of bank-product returns each season, with streamlined workflow that enables preparers to prepare returns in less than 15 minutes and complete all forms needed for e-filing returns with a bank product.

Intuit also announced the formation of a consolidated Accountant and Advisor Customer Council whose members will provide input to the company to further develop offerings for accounting professionals. As well, the following three products were spotlighted with the announcement of new features scheduled for release over the next several months: Intuit EasyACCT Professional Series, QuickBooks Financial Statement Designer Version 2 and QuickBooks Version Detector.
