How to Handle Partial Date Information in Surveys?

In my survey, participants sometimes provide only partial date information (e.g., just the month). What are the best practices for dealing with this? Should we use separate questions for year, month, and day, or is there a better approach like using a patterned text field or categorical options for year-month combinations?
