Errors setting up local replication task

New to TrueNAS, trying to get everything set up. Using TrueNAS Scale as the iscsi backing for three xen hypervisors, with 19 vdevs in support of VMs running on those machines. I already have a daily snapshot job set up, and that seems to be working correctly. I wanted to set up a replication task to back things up from the primary raidz2 SSD pool (DATA) to a secondary raidz1 hard drive pool (BACKUP). When running through the wizard (following this doc page), I'm getting the error -

[EINVAL] replication_create.periodic_snapshot_tasks: You must at least either bind a periodic snapshot task or provide "Also Include Naming Schema" or "Name Regex" for push replication task

Out of curiosity, what am I missing? I'll paste screenshots in below.

(*correction ... 19 zvols, not zdevs.)

I'll also add...if I do the "replicate custom snapshots" option, it seems to work. That's not a required step in the docs though, and I'm not sure the implications of doing so (eg., I want to make sure that it keeps pulling fresh data from DATA to BACKUP, not stuck pulling from the same snapshot repeatedly.)

Did you ever get a fix, or an answer? I seem to be having a similar problem when trying to transfer data from an older NAS to a newer one

This is a UI bug present in TrueNAS-SCALE-22.12.0. In the Replication Task Wizard click on Advanced Replication Creation instead of Next and select a previously created and enabled snapshot task in Periodic Snapshot Tasks. After that continue with setting up your Replication Task. The option to select a previously created and enabled snapshot task should be present in the Wizard.

I wish it would be that easy, I tried every setting in the last hours with getting error after error. Is there any chance that this would be fixed soon?
