Hey Jan :-)

I think there is a misunderstanding here.

This bug is about the user interface and what the user is allowed to input.

The user should only be able to select a month, because according to the
standard, no other option is possible anyway.

You are right that the API allows specifying dates down to the exact day, but
that doesn’t make sense, since the standard only supports monthly time
specifications in terms of content.

The COUNTER standard (R5 as well as R5.1) only requires months:

"Reports MUST be provided monthly."
"The reports MUST allow the report consumer the flexibility to specify a date
range, in terms of months."

(see https://cop5.countermetrics.org/en/5.1.0.1/05-delivery/index.html)

And this is the definition for the date range (Begin_Date + End_Date):

"Beginning and end of the reporting period. Note that the COUNTER API allows
the format yyyy-mm for the API path parameters, which must be expanded with the
first/last day of the month for the report header. For the tabular reports
these filters are included in the Reporting_Period header instead of the
Reporting_Filters header for easier reading."

(see
