We have a similar problem, and have solve it with a summary file.  We have
our ITH file set to 365 days, then summarize to a file that stores info by
item, transaction type, facility, etc., with 24 buckets for each item.
This lets us see, for example, the CI transactions at a particular facility
for a specific item for each of the past 24 months, although not the
individual transactions.  A similar summary file for as many monthly
buckets as you might need might be helpful for you.
