In an earlier version of Quicken I was able to create a IRA investment with a linked checking account.  However I am unable to do it in Quicken 2017 Premiere with a new IRA investment I am trying to add.  According to the help feature and in quicken.com's website, there is no "Show cash in a checking account" option to select.

    I don't believe that the feature has EVER been available in Retirement type accounts.  Taxable accounts only.

    Did you convert from MS Money sometime in the past?
    From reading other posts on this topic, my understanding is that MSM used linked cash accounts for all investment accounts (including retirement accounts) - and that this configuration carried over on converting to QWin.
    As indicated by NotACPA, creating linked cash accounts for investment/retirement accounts is not a feature of QWin.
