Ability to bulk update the specific period selected for Editable Tables

In TBM Studio, when creating a Table based on an Editable Table, there are four options for the time selections:

1) No Reoccurring Updates
2) Previous Month
3) Current Month
4) Specific Period

Note that the Previous Month and Current Month options are based on the actual date.

We have a process that spans over a number of months but all data is required to be loaded into a single month in Apptio and so we need to use the 'Specific Period' option. However, this means that every time we need to run this process (3-4 times a year), we need to check out each table, change the period selected, and then check them all back in. The process has over 100 Editable Tables and is very time consuming to update which is a poor experience for admins and also a poor experience for users who have to wait for all the tables to be manually updated before they can begin their process. 

 

It would be great if:

1) there was a way to bulk update all the tables as required (even if via a script if a product enhancement is not possible)

2) if an addition option for 'Selected Month' could be used which is based on the Date Range Selected by the user.
