The bill and reminder was the fastest way to find out if you have the schedule setup to your correctly.
In the individual register, you can go into the Settings and change it to show all future instances of future transactions. Also, make sure you have no filters set in the account that would prevent visibility of transactions. You can click on Clear Filters at the top.5

You left out some specifics, but this usually comes about because you have setup a schedule for the scheduled transaction which falls too far into the future to be displayed in the register view. (By default, the register only shows the next 14 days of upcoming reminders. If the next reminder is for a month from now, you will get the filtered view warning.)
In QMac 2017 or newer, the easiest way (without tampering with your register settings) is to click on Bills and Income at the top of your register. Click on the "Projected Balances" button, and you will see all future instances of the reminder regardless of how far into the future they may lie.
If the future instance date is not correct, then you can double click the reminder and choose the third option to Edit the Series. Then, adjust the frequency as needed.

As far as the "Projected Balances" view: yes, it is nice to see the scheduled transactions in the individual registers. But don't rule out the former view: it is a quick way to see all your scheduled transactions in a single spot.
PS: the three filters have default labels of: All Dates, Any Type, Any Status
