What you enter each month in the Quicken program is not necessarily what will be on the 1099-R so you must wait for the 1099-R before entering in that information OR import from the retirement plan directly. Don't expect quicken to have the correct info to import.
Thanks for your comments. I am just estimating taxes at this point, so would still like to import the Quicken data. I plan to update it later when my 1099-R becomes available.
The 1099-R section is currently non functional ... if you are using the downloaded version you can switch to the forms mode and make a direct entry.
