Can I change the late policy without affecting past grades?

I have an automatic deduction set up for late work: -10% per day not to exceed 50%. However, our administration has now decided that we cannot subtract more than 10% at any time for late work. I can't apply the new policy to work from 1st quarter because our synched gradebook is closed. Is there a way to change the automatic late deduction from this point forward?

I'm sorry, but this is actually incorrect. In addition to the warning message, I tested it out, and it does change all past grades. I'm also not able to remove the "per day" part for a flat 10% automatic deduction, so I'm going to have to manually change the grade each time a student turns in late work. 

Thank you for replying. I just don't want to leave misinformation out there for others to see.
