Question

Hello,

is this expected behaviour and what to need to changed so that work profile password should be different from Device password

@Richa Kumari , In fact, when an android device is enrolled to Intune and work profile password is applied, the ‘Use One Lock’ setting will be enabled by default, and this will take over the device settings and replace it with work profile settings.

If you want them to be different, you need to disable the "use one lock". When the work profile inactivity, we open the apps under work profile, it will prompt for Work Profile passcode. Password profile settings will keep prompting require the device passcode to be set via requirements, while does not enforce password.

Currently, the above action needs to be done on the device manually. But you can request the feature in Intune uservoice to see if we can get it in the future:
