It's a vsphere 7 environment, and when I entered the configuration from the screen you mentioned, there were only daily, weekly, and custom (specified days of the week) and there was no monthly, so I asked.

Is there something I've missed?

My bad here..I see the point. We do not have monthly schedule backup's in place and we are welcome for this suggestion via feedback ..Maybe vSphere 8 we can have this . 

Maybe u can script this .I haven't tried this on vSphere 6.7/7.0 . Check it out.
