The question assumes an initial 'big bang', which some historians, such as Christopher Browning, do not accept.
There is no exact date, as there was almost certainly no single order for the start of the 'Final Solution'. However, if you want a specific date, the obvious 'candidates' are:
Mobile killing units go into action behind German lines. The first large scale massacres take place in Kaunas, Lithuania, starting on 25 June 1941 --- or
The first mass gassings started at Chelmno (Kulmhof) in Poland on 8 December 1941.
Note that the Wannsee Conference (20 January 1942) is no longer accepted by historians, as the meeting was concerned with co-ordinating the various agencies involved. No policy decisions were taken.
