How do i set up a schedule for a monthly backup that runs on the last week day of each month?
 
Once you create the job all you should have to do is right click on the job and select new schedule.

from there you can define how you want that job to run.

Yes i know where the scheduling tab is - but from there other than selecting the job to run on specific dates there is no clear way to define a monthly schedule that runs on the last week day of the month
 
There is a schedule for days of the month, select the last Friday and your done.
 
Sorry I checked and its titled "Week Days", select the last Friday.
 
I said the last weekday of the month not the last friday. IE: If the last day was on a tuesday it would run then but if it fell on a sunday it would run on friday.
 
OK. I don't think you can schedule that in without manually entering the dates.

I've never heard of anyone wanting to do it that way either, normally an end of month backup is a bigger deal and you set it aside to run over a weekend and around your other backups. If it isn't a big deal then just do it manually.
 
I totally agree mate - but the clients corporate policy says thats how it has to be!!!!!!!
