Purpose?  For example, you mention the Balance Sheet. The DATA on a 
balance sheet depends only on the "date as of" provided that this date 
is less than or equal to the date when run. As long as you are running a 
Balance Sheet report FOR a date on or before dates that it is run all of 
these balance sheets will be exactly the same as long as no transactions 
with effective dates on or before have been altered.

OK -- I CAN see some reasons where you might make use of this date (the 
date run) if at several dates AFTER the effective date of the report you 
are making additions/corrections with dates on or before the effective 
date. And you have exported these several versions and now need to try 
to figure out which is which. Think about the various ways you might 
know which was the latest << besides the data IN the report >>

PS: Profit & Loss is the same except it is a date range, not a single 
effective date. But again, provided not transaction shave been 
added/altered with dates within this range the report will be the same 
regardless of when run.
