Scheduled and manual backup does the same thing. If you have setup scheduled backups the primary use case of a manual backup would be to do one just before a reinstall if you want to be sure to not loose data since last scheduled backup. Also please note that there are no automatic deletion of old backup files, so you may want to delete older backups to avoid that they eventually take up a lot of disc space.
