Hi Southern Monument ,

Thanks for your question! The session date in Sage 50 controls which transactions and reports are displayed — it’s the active working date for your session. Even if the “Show session date” box is unchecked, reports may still display the session date depending on how they’re generated or printed.

Here are a few resources that explain how it works and how to adjust it:

• Learn what the session date does and how it affects transactions and reports: Session Date overview

• To change the session date before running reports, see this guide: Change the Session Date (Help Guide)

• If you’re still seeing the date after unchecking the option, this article explains additional steps to review or adjust your settings: How to change the session date

After verifying your session date and report settings, try closing and reopening the report — this ensures the new settings take effect.

Hope this clarifies things! 
If this helps, please mark the answer as Verified so others can find it more easily.

Warm regards,
