Hello all, I would like to know if it is possible to configure backup schedules based on creation date. For example if I wanted only to backup data after a certain date. I would want to exclude any data that was created before a specified date. Any suggestions?

if I understand you correctly, you want to exclude anything you have backed up after its been backed up on a certain date right ?

unless you have time to reset your backup selection every time after a "specific date" after the data is backedup the only clean way to do this is to do a archive mode back up,

archive mode backs up the data then delete it off the folder, so next time if you run the back on the same general folder it would be excluded because its no longer there.

one other mode is the differental or increment mode, unless you changed the data after that certain date, it will not be backed up again
