AEG, I have succeeded in re-using scheduled transactions but there are some limitations. In your case, I think that using the for some number of occurrences may be what is preventing further use of that SX. I have never used that box. Last Occurred is only settable by the program so once it has set that, I think there is no way to change the SX to add another occurrence before that date.
As you have surmised, it is likely easier to duplicate a recent occurrence in the register and create a new SX from that.
