After searching everywhere saying there's an option when setting up a new pin passcode, you can press "Confirm PIN without tapping OK"  BUT I do not see this option at all. 

I tried setting up a new pin over and over, and there's no such option to check off before confirming the pin.  I even tried minimizing the keyboard to see if it's hidden somewhere, nope.   

So right now I continue to having to press "ok" after I enter in the Pin on my lock screen.   Help!

<This on my S22 Ultra>

This got resolved.  It was due to my work profiled installed on the phone, it blocked seeing that checkbox option entirely.  So I had to uninstall the company portal work profile, and that checkbox finally showed up when setting up a Pin.  Then I reinstalled work profile again,  it now doesn't require me to press ok anymore.

Wow I've combed through my phones settings many times and thought i knew most of them. Apparently not lmao, thanks! I just set this on my phone now, now the 2-3 day mandatory pincode entry won't be as much of a hassle
