Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...]

If I schedule monthly patching in one month for the 31st day, it won't run in months that have 30 days.
If I schedule monthly patching in one month for the 25th day, this policy will run on a different day of the week in each month, which confuses end users in 24/7 businesses that want patching to run on the last Wednesday of every month (for example).

Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

Monthly patching to have the option to run on a week of the month, on a day of the week.
For example, you could allow the last week of the month on a Wednesday.
You would need to add week numbers (1 - 5), as well as the option of "Last" week.

I know it is slightly unrelated, but rather than create a duplicate issue, it would be good to have the ability to run monthly patching on the "Last" day of the month, rather than selecting a day number like 30 or 31.

Describe alternatives you've considered
A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

If I schedule monthly patching in one month for the 25th day, this policy will on a different day of the week in each month (i.e. Wednesday, then Thursday, then Friday), which confuses end users in 24/7 businesses who want a simple schedule.
