i suggest (my opinion), to use the dates on your Cert of Employment.. because you will have to attach that in you application.. and CO will be able to see that..
then, you fill up a form stating that there was a "small" mistake made initially in your CDR..
im guessing you can attach this from to your online visa application, or wait for your CO and email it to them..

We learned about the visa grant when we got an email from DIAC will subject as Your SkillSelect EOI has been removed - it was subsequently followed by Mr CO with his good news of us getting the visa grant.
