Peer comment(s):

agree Alice Bootman : Given the context, I'd go with this one. It seems to refer to a backup of work to do, not a series of late payments or something similar.

La verdad, depende mas del contexto, acumulado puede funcionar por zonas. Ox. Superlex pone: backlog: n atraso m; there is a huge backlog of work hay muchísimo trabajo atrasado; how long will it take to clear the backlog? ¿cuánto tiempo llevará poner el trabajo al día?
