The recurrence pattern that you select repeats itself every month. The default setting is for the job to run every month on the current week and day of the month. For example, if you create the job on the third Monday of the month, the default setting is for the job to run once a month on the third Monday. You can change the default or select additional days on which the job should run. Any additional days that you select are added to the monthly recurrence pattern. Selected dates of the month Specifies the dates of the month on which Backup Exec runs the job. The recurrence pattern that you select repeats itself every month.

Any additional days that you select are added to the monthly recurrence pattern. If you select the 31st, the job runs on the last day of the month in months that do not have 31 days.
