Modify the Distribution's checkpoint

**`note`** this method is of type [ProcedureMethod](/polymesh-sdk-api-reference/docs-v9/interfaces/proceduremethod.md), which means you can call `modifyCheckpoint.checkAuthorization` on it to see whether the Current Account has the required permissions to run it

**Parameters:**

| Name    | Type                                                                             |
