• Hire date is a system generated date and it should not be manually changed. It's the first job info record with hire event's start date
• Hire date is also used for integration purposes. So it's a much more fundamental and important field
• There are other fields in Employment Details including Seniority Date that can be changed. These date fields like Seniority Date can change as per company's policy
• For example, there may be a policy that the seniority date will start once the Employee completes probation of 6 months. In this case the Hire Date is will remain as employee's Hire Date, however Seniority Date can be updated to Hire Date + 6 months
