Hello @arpitchauhan-5492,

Thanks for reaching out.

Could you please elaborate in detail? are you creating multiple users from Azure portal, PowerShell or Office portal ? Here are detailed steps to create users in bulk.

In order to bulk create users in the administration portal, you must be signed in as a Global administrator or User administrator. Are you getting any error while creating user, if so please share with us. Thanks.

Hello @arpitchauhan-5492,

Thanks for reaching out.

I hope you are trying to create user's password with "Let me create the password" option and password might contains same username in password field.

Example: UPN: Rahul.sharma@xyz.onmicrosoft.com and Password : ####Sharma#### or ####Rahul### then this is an expected error due to Password policy restrictions whereas password shouldn't contains user's Name, more information refer.

Please find below screenshot for your reference and was able to repro the same issue.

I understand this generic error message which need improvement so meanwhile I would recommend try using Auto-generate password or choose password which doesn't contain users name in it also comply with Azure AD password policies.

Hope this helps.
