I have never seen it behave this way, in MacOS / Linux / Win10 I always get a popup and if I so choose I can click the checkbox to display the txns just created which are listed in a new register tab. The txns themself always show up immediately in their appropriate register which is usually one

I think if you set it up to create x days in advance, when the transaction is created, the "last occurrence" is set to the day of the transaction (no to the day it was created). So that would explain why you see "Last occurrence 2/5/21". Is it possible that you somehow deleted the occurrence
