What is Adjusted Service Date in QuickBooks?

The Adjusted Service Date in QuickBooks refers to a modified start date used for calculating employee benefits and accruals. This date is particularly important for managing leave balances, such as vacation or sick time, especially when an employee has taken unpaid leave or had breaks in service. By adjusting the service date, employers can ensure accurate tracking of benefits based on actual service time rather than calendar days. This feature helps maintain fairness and compliance with company policies and legal requirements. Adjusting the service date can be crucial for accurate financial reporting and payroll processing, ensuring that all employee entitlements are correctly calculated and allocated.
