Scheduling Backps in BE 2012

I have set up a server group and choose the selections i want for that group backed up. However I want to schedule a daily differential backup to run every night Monday to Thursday, then on Friday I want to run a full backup. However the only options I can find are to run a daily backup every weekday which i dont want. We used to be able to do this in 12.5 and also set weekly backups to run for 3 weeks and a monthly at the end of the month. 

Either I am missing something here or this functionality has been removed.

You must go the the job properties, epxand the "Recurrence" drop-down for Differential Method.

Select "Weeks"

Now you can select the days of the week when you want this Differential backup to run.
