Quicken 2020 Home & Business, Windows, just setting up for VG i-401(k).. Vanguard i-401(k)s can hold both Roth and traditional IRA funds. QW does not appear to explicitly know about 1-401(s)s; for the present, it's a 'traditional IRA' holding employer contribution. Employee contributions will include Roth and traditional contributions.
Any suggestions / observations for setting up this type of investment in QW?

Does this show up on the Vanguard website as separate accounts for the traditional and Roth components, or is it one combined account?
If one account at Vanguard, I am afraid there is no way to track the traditional and Roth portions separately. I would set it up as a 401(k), which can have employer and employee contributions.QWin Premier subscription5 -
I have a 401(k) that is a combination of traditional and Roth (not at Vanguard) and unfortunately in Quicken it is all one account so I can't see the Roth balance separately.
Before I start taking distributions I will roll it over into separate traditional and Roth IRA accounts so I have more control over the investments in each and can take distributions from just the traditional side.QWin Premier subscription5

Thank you, Jim. I don't see how to add a Roth at present but presume this will be revealed in the fullness of time.0

That's the information (answer) I was looking for. Thank you for setting my expectations in the right space.1
