A rejected setup code means Institution could not verify the authenticator for the current setup attempt. Stay in the setup dialog and check the entry you added from its QR code or manual key.
Enter all six digits from that entry. If the code is about to change, wait for the next code and submit it promptly. Check that the phone’s clock is correct. If you restarted setup, an entry created from the earlier QR code may no longer match this attempt.
The form reports a length error when the input is not a complete six-digit code. It reports a verification error when a submitted code was not accepted. Read which result you received so you are correcting the relevant problem.
Do not assume that two-factor protection is active while the setup dialog is still showing an error. The enabled confirmation and the Enabled status are the result to check. If several fresh codes from the current entry fail, contact support with the error wording and device details. Never include the code, QR image, or setup key in that report.
