Can I schedule the backup of our user databases together with system databases (Master, MSDB, Model, etc.) of MS SQL Server all at the same time?

New to this thing. Hope you can help me on this.

Thanks in advance

Yes. But you will actually want to backup your system databases last, since they record not only information about your user databases, but backup histories, files, etc as well.

Thanks for the advice. My follow up question should be when can when I finished backing up my user database so I can immediately backup my system databases. Anyway, I got it by now as I have to use job scheduler.

Many thanks for you advice. :)
