Narrative:
On the flight in question; as captain; my responsibilities included verification of effective dates of the data and other company documents onboard the aircraft efbs against the dispatch release. Although I do not remember the exact dates; I do recall that the effective dates were within the tolerances stated in the dispatch release and marked a check next to each document. Furthermore; I asked my first officer to confirm my verification by checking the effectivity of the documents on his efb as well. Both efbs were within tolerance to the best of my knowledge. The two programs in question also include a warning flag; indicating that the effective dates have been exceeded; no warnings were observed on either program.
