Check with typeinto activity and enable the options like send window message and try or you need to capture the selector and try to make dynamic selector according to the date generated Thanks ---

Yes, It will change for the next month. but we need to get the selectors for the month, year, and date, so that we can check the selector and make a dynamic selector That is the only way i think Thanks ---

Sometimes these date picker fields only accept the correct format and you can paste a date with the correct format in there. You could try defining the date as “dd/MMM/yyyy”, then use a Set to Clipboard activity and use Send Hotkey activity with Ctrl + V to paste the date in. ---

yah did we try with copy paste method as @lukasziebold suggested like that field if takes in such way of input then we can pass the input date string format we want as input to SET TO CLIPBOARD and use SEND HOT KEY ACTIVITY with key as ctrl+v so that it will paste that to the field Cheers @vivek_sivam ---

If Type into is not working here then Use Click activity or Select item for selecting Month and year Then for date selection if you see the selectors there are table row so for less than 22 date chose row from 3 if not exist then increment that value say 4 if exist then click else again increment ---
