Standard practice rerun updated deluge function over existing recordes

Standard practice rerun updated deluge function over existing recordes

Hi folks,
we have a function which is triggered via webhook from a third-party solution which then calls another api with a contact-id and gets a json payload back and then parses that data to custom fields in our CRM to the record id. As requirements are added the function is updated. What is the best way/standard practice in Zoho CRM ecosystem to rerun that function over the existing records? i have pondered about a couple of approaches involving external app-stacks but I was wondering if there is a way in Zoho ecosystem that I'm missing?
Thx,
Jan

The amounts are exactly the same and it won't change my ending balance.
