No experience with sccm. See if the parameter "reboot count" is found somewhere. R.C. Can be used to suspend BL for a given number of reboots.

we have PIN enabled for all systems. When user starts the system in the morning - it does not ask the bit locker pin and when we check system not upgraded, but bit locker will be suspended mode. I check bitlocker status, this gives the reboot counts. there is no RC provided in status. therefore it is surprise to me
Look at what's configured by sccm. Maybe it's there.
Hi,
BitLocker needs to be suspended on each machine before the Windows upgrade is started. However there is no need to suspend BitLocker if the Windows version is 1709 or higher.
Try looking at this link to add into the SCCM task sequence to suspend BitLocker prior to upgrade:

"BitLocker needs to be suspended on each machine before the Windows upgrade is started. However there is no need to suspend BitLocker if the Windows version is 1709 or higher." - no. Bitlocker auto-suspends with any version of win10 when upgrading.
Belt and braces mate.
