Using date picker with single date interval want to select previous 4 year - any number of year back with ease

Hi,

So we are using date picker in our dashboard, user should only able to select only single date so we have keep single date interval, And we are showing only current year and month when opening date picker.
Now the problem is what if user want to select the 2008 or 2019 data, He needs to click on left side icon multiple time to get there which is not a good experience for user.
How can I solve this? usually on calendar we click on year it will give us option to select year

Let me know how can I solve this.

Thanks,

I think it's just a constraint of the Date Picker, and I'm not aware of any way around this. If the user frequently needs to select a single date, which can be any date across multiple years, and you need to make the selection process as painless as possible, then you might need to consider an alternative approach. Perhaps you could create separate year, month and day fields and present them as list boxes, so the user always needs a max of three selections to return any date.
