Jonathan, you can do that in the Schedule resource as John said, which is the
way I like to do it.  (last Run line wraps, but should be on one line)

Schedule {
 Name = Daily
 Run = Full  Pool=FullPool 1st Fri at 23:00
 Run = Differential Pool=DiffPool FullPool=FullPool 2nd-5th fri at 23:00
 Run = Incremental Pool=IncPool DifferentialPool=DiffPool FullPool=FullPool /
       mon-thu at 23:00
}


But you can also do it in the Job resource itself:

Job {
 Name = Backup_A
--[snip]--
 Full Backup Pool = FullPool
 Incremental Backup Pool = IncPool
 Differential Backup Pool = DiffPool
}


Hope this helps!
