The date placed in service is the date you would use for the purchase date.
You might want to check that. It's no problem for the purchase date to be years before the in service date. The program asks for both dates separately. Do note that nowhere on any of the 4562's do I see a separation of those two dates either. Kinda makes one wonder why it even asks for the acquisition/purchase date. 🙂 Maybe it's somewhere else on the tax return I'm not aware of? Don't know off hand.
