Is it possible to schedule something for everyday AFTER a certain day of the month?

For example, we currently have a file monitor task that checks a FTP site every evening. It is setup to run every 1 day and every day of the week is checked.

However, for various reasons, we now need that process to only start checking after the 5th of every month. So basically I need to run the task every day of the month EXCEPT for 1-5. There has to be a way to do this without setting up a scheduled task for days 6-31. Please help!

create a variable monitor task:
Variable Name = DATE::dd
Variable value = 5
Criteria : >
Task to run = your_filemonitor_task_title

then schedule this variable monitor task to run daily. If the date is >05 then it will run your file monitor task. suspend/delete the schedule for your file monitor task.
