Alfresco has no expiration of users / passwords. Are you sure the users were created in Alfresco and not in some directory service (with expiration policies in place) and then synched to Alfresco?

Yes we have directly created user in Alfresco using create User API. In JSON, we are just passing user name, password and group assigned to that user. We have our application database in which passwords of users are stored in encrypted form. Whenever new user is being created in our application, at that moment we are creating same user in Alfresco. And our application password expiration is 365 days but due to Alfresco we changed it to 28 days.  But still it is not working. I have checked the basic configuration files but didn't find anything regarding to password expiration.
