  Verify Dates: Check the dates being used in the transaction or process. Ensure that the new date you are trying to set is indeed different from the current date.
  Adjust Date Input: If you intended to change the date, input a new date that is different from the current date.
  Review Business Logic: If this warning is part of a larger process (like end-of-day processing), review the business logic to ensure that the date change is necessary and valid.
