Did some additional testing as requested.

1.  If the Create Automatically is not checked, and it is time to fire (or past time in my tests) then user is presented the option to review the transactions (including the ones that were auto-created=Y).  If you click CANCEL then the one not auto-created is not added to the journal.  If you click OK (without reviewing) then it is created.  The ones that were auto-created stayed in the journal if you did click CANCEL.

2.  If the Create Automatically is checked and the scheduled transaction fired, THEN if Notify is checked, you are presented the option to review the transactions.  Whether you click CANCEL or OK, the transactions remain in the Journal.

3.  If the Create Automatically is checked and the scheduled transactions fired, THEN if Notify is not checked you get the confusing message noted below.

Notes:
1.  if multiple scheduled transactions are fired that include Cases a mix of 1, 2, and/or 3, then Cases 1 and 2 will override case 3 and present you the list.
2.  Notify can only be checked if Create Auto is also checked.

That indeed appears confusing.

I'm going to hazard a guess that it means there are none for you to review prior to creation, absent auto-creation.

(do a test SX, set to not auto-create, then run the dialog. It should show it to you as 'to create')

Perhaps it should read, "There are no Scheduled Transactions to be manually entered at this time. (one transaction automatically created)"

That would likely get fixed in the next release if you file a bug on it. It seems just a matter of wording.

Did not go looking for the thread in which this was mentioned.

This evening when I popped GnC open, it reported:  "There are no Scheduled Transactions to be entered at this time.  (One transaction automatically created)."
Screen
Was only given the option to Close the information window.  I did check the general journal and a scheduled transaction for 15 days out was created.  I checked that scheduled transaction and it was set to be created 15 days out (which would have been today).
