screen time passcode?

I am erasing all data/settings on iPhone 7. It is asking for a screen-time passcode. I don't remember this. How do I proceed?

iPhone 7, iOS 14

You need to erase that device following these instructions (even if related to the passcode to lock/unlock device's screen):--> If you forgot the passcode on your iPhone, or your iPhone is disabled - Apple Support


The bad news is that you cannot restore data from a backup, since the ScreenTime passcode would come back in.
