How do I make proconnect reflect that a signed date for the 8879 was enetered in the client cover page letter of a filed return?

My clients sign and return the 8879 and any applicable state e-file docs. I enter the signed date into the electronic filing screen. I then file the return and generate a PDF. The cover letter of the return states:

Your 2024 Federal Individual Income Tax return will be electronically filed with the Internal Revenue Service upon receipt of a signed Form 8879 - IRS e-file Signature Authorization.

Clearly this is incorrect.
