ui5-date-picker: expose Month picker view

[sunnyyadav100]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
As per the business scenario, only month and year need to be selected. Expose ui5-monthpicker as part of ui5-date-picker to select the only month.

Hi @sunnyyadav100 ,

Thank you for raising this feature request!

To sum up again, your request is to expose ui5-monthpicker (possibly as part of ui5-date-picker), which allows to select entire months (as in the image you provided), since in your business scenario the data granularity is entire months (and not specific dates within the month).

Please correct me if something is missing, before I put this request to the pipeline.

Thanks!

Hi @kineticjs, yes that is correct.

The business scenario is -
The users collect monthly prices for materials from suppliers. In 360 view, users want to see view monthly prices for a chosen period. To select months, we need a month picker.

Hello @sunnyyadav100 you can track the progress in a newly created issue
#2993

We plan to support a new DatePicker display type based on format, f.e if the format includes only month and year,
just the month and year pickers will be displayed, ss in the "DatePickers types based on display format" example here:
