Taking out common config of jenkins jobs

I have about 200 jenkins, each of them has a long config page but actually most config are the same. Everytime when I need to update something in the common config, I write a groovy script to loop though those jobs and update them one by one. It's a pain because it takes about 5 minutes to update those jobs by the groovy script. I am wondering is there a jenkins plugin(or something else) that I can use to put the common config in one place? jenkins slicing plugin doesn't work well, I think it conflicts with another plugin.

Thanks

Sounds like a job for the job-dsl plugin

From the wiki page

The Jenkins job-dsl-plugin attempts to solve this problem by allowing jobs to be defined with the absolute minimum necessary in a programmatic form, with the help of templates that are synced with the generated jobs. The goal is for your project to be able to define all the jobs they want to be related to their project, declaring their intent for the jobs, leaving the common stuff up to a template that were defined earlier or hidden behind the DSL.
