Anyway, I would personally create a new time profile (period 1 = April, period 12 = March), attach that to a new cube, pull the openings for that cube from the old cube when appropriate and use the new cube going forward. Then you have two cubes, one with the historical data, and one with the new data going forward. You could still use the same dimensions, including entity and scenario.
