Reproducing the Issue

Admin Center  -> Manage Login Accounts -> Change Login Account ( for users who has multiple employments) 

Resolution

When you switch login accounts, you can now  Update password-related settings of the login account accordingly from H1 2022 release.

You can do so under Admin Center  -> Manage Login Accounts.

What's Changed and How it Looks now:

How it Looked Before:

Option1 : Leave Update the password-related settings of the login account accordingly unchecked

Note : This option is unchecked by default. If this option is left unchecked, system keeps current behavior.

•Authentication-related information, such as password, password expiration date, and last login fail date, and so on, remains unchanged.
•The person receives a change account e-mail when the update completes.
 

Examples:

•In a multiple-employment scenario, a person has two employments: Employment 1 (username 1 and password 1)
•Employment 2 (username 2 and password 2)
•If you change the login account of this person from employment 1 to employment 2, the account-related information is updated to employment 2. The authentication-related information remains with employment 1.
•As a result, the person can log in the system using either username 2 (password 1) or username 1 (password 1).
