Adding some notes as I work through this while waiting for Apple response:
Request for Apple:
Please make yellow status indicators clickable. I feel like I should be able to click "Missing Metadata" and have a pop-up show me specifically what metadata is missing.
Notes for others who find this while trying to solve similar/same problem:
It is possible for this to be broken even if you passed sandbox testing and Apple has approved your app for release. Highly recommend verifying in actual AppStore that in-app purchases display - especially before starting an ad campaign.
On the AppStoreConnect pages to set up subscription groups and individual subscriptions, treat every field as required - unless the field explicitly calls it out as optional. In my case - the status didn't change from missing metadata until I added localizations and Review Information Screenshot.
Review Information Screenshot - Size requirements: Image will not upload unless it adheres to the sizing constraints found here. Sizing constraints found here - Apple Documentation
in AppStoreConnect > Apps > Distribution > iOS App > {version you are releasing} - If you do not see your subscriptions under In-App Purchases and Subscriptions on this page - then your subscription/in-app purchase is not a part of your submission - and it will not show up in the AppStore. I was previously under the belief that I only needed to set up subscriptions on the page under Monetization from the left side menu bar.
This thread from the forum helped me a lot and contains more information about other things that need to be checked if it still isn't working for you.
