How to record a Transfer From Checking to Investing Brokerage as a Buy

Question

I have Quicken for Mac Deluxe 2020.
 Every month, I Buy  a collection of Mutual Funds.  I have the Mutual funds setup as a Brokerage account with Transaction Downloads.
 I can build a Transaction in my Checking register as a [Transfer] to my Brokerage account.  This shows up as a Payment/Deposit in the Brokerage account, but it is really not.  I want this [Transfer] from my Checking to show up as a "Buy".  
 Or, I want the Downloaded Transaction in my Brokerage account to show as a withdrawal from my Checking via [Transfer].
 ...can't seem to figure it out. :)

The newer versions of Quicken for Mac do not support the transfer/buy (or sell) as a single transaction.

Yes, you will have to have it as a transfer to the brokerage account (which it really is), and the subsequent buy with the $ you put into the account.
