Data Traffic Management Honor 5X

Hi, I wonder if anyone knows how to adjust the data measurement cycle in the Honor 5x. My mobile internet and wi-fi are all being measured on a calendar month basis. My monthly mobile data cycle begins on the 15th of the month so a calendar measurement is no good for keeping track of how much I am using. However, I can't find any way in the settings to move the first day of the monthly measurement cycle to the 15th as opposed to the default 1st day of the month. Any tips welcome. Thanks!!
 
I don't have a SIM in my H5X at the moment, but I seem to recall that the option was kind of buried inside the Data Traffic Management settings component. Maybe tap the settings cog in the top right to see if it's there?

I'll try to remember to put a SIM in the phone tomorrow and find where that can be configured. :)
Thanks for looking. As you'll see from the other reply I received, it seems to have been taken out. I posted a reply there too.

Well shoot. That's where it used to be, but the only option there is just for setting the amount of data available in your plan. I guess with the Android 6.0 / EMUI 4.1 upgrade they decided that was no longer a necessary option. :(
I thought it was there before. This is normally standard issue in phones and is necessary to keep an eye on data, The reason I noticed this in the first place was that I went over my allowance last month for the first time ever. (HUAWEI, CAN SOMETHING BE DONE??)
