Unable to unlock iPhone after screen replacement

I'm sure this has been dealt with severally but here's my issue:

Phone suddenly stopped working (screen flickering).

little did I know that it's keying in numbers on Lock Screen (basically Passcode)

I changed the screen just to find out now it's Locked (iPhone unavailable)

I know my Passcode but I have no place to enter it.

there's no way Apple has a feature where I can go to my account on my computer - go to my devices and say unlock ?

I changed the screen

Hopefully, you are not saying that you yourself changed the screen.

Can you clarify on that please?

At this point, the only option is to erase the device and restore it.

If you changed the screen yourself and didn't use Apple's official self repair program or had it done by an unauthorized service provider, Apple will never touch that device again.

Don't be surprised if Face ID doesn't work any more.

Contact whoever replaced the display.

As for a bypass not using the passcode on the display, no.
