Changing Date on FM Server

Is it possible / advisable to change the date on FM Server back to 31/10/2002, and if so would I also need to change the date on the relevant workstation?

The date is determined by the workstation, I don't think the server date will matter at all. As to what happens when you do, it is highly dependent upon how your solution is written. A better practice for reports is to have the user specify which month to use for the report. The current month can be set in the selection as the default.
