Configure actions for noncompliance with a grace period

Stops surprise Conditional Access lockouts. Give the mandatory 'Mark device noncompliant' action a grace period and add a 'send email to end user' remediation notice before the block bites.

Intune admin center (Devices > Compliance)
Step 1. Go to Devices > Compliance and sign in as the Example Company admin.

Step 7. Separately check Devices > Compliance > Compliance policy settings > 'Compliance status validity period' (default 30 days) so an un-checked-in device isn't auto-flagged.
