Question

I keep getting this message each time I create a new invoice for payable and receivable: 
 "The date entered is beyond 2014-05-31 by more than 1 day. Are you sure you want to continue?" 
 How do I get rid of this?

We are not talking about the fiscal start or end dates here. We are talking about which date Sage 50 thinks it is. That date is used to give you the date warning messages you are getting. If you post into the future past the session date (as it appears you are doing by posting Sep entries with a Session date of May), it will warning you that you are posting a future dated entry or if you post to the previous month, it will tell you that as well. 
 I never really paid much attention to the first Session date but I assume it would be the fiscal start date. I always change it daily. When I get to the end of the fiscal year, I might hold it on the last day for a couple of days, but then move to the new year once I have time to get all my billing done for the month and get all my backups done.

You can also change the number of days it warns on, under: 
 In Setup | Settings | System are these settings: 
 [ X ] Allow transactions in the future (beyond the session date) 
 [ X ] Warn if transactions are [ ] days in the future 
 If you commonly work on information that is dated 'in the future', then you may want to change number of days for warning, or deselect it entirely
