What's the error?
You could post all of your code and not just one line.

Do not post image of HTML code.
Can post in forum with code tag or better for HTML CodePen or JSFiddle.
Example Pen,you see that i have put id="txtAccessCode".
When i test local with that html code it work,it send abc123sample to input field.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
import time
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

#--| Setup
options = Options()
#options.add_argument("--headless")
browser = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r'C:\cmder\bin\chromedriver.exe')
#--| Parse or automation
browser.get('file:///E:/div_code/scrape/local1.html')
time.sleep(3)
browser.find_element_by_id("txtAccessCode").send_keys("abc123sample")
time.sleep(5)
browser.quit()

So far I had tried get the Name or XPath but they result still the same.
Then I go to browser console try to catch the element by using JS.
document.getElementById("txtAccessCode").value() = "something"
and it return me expected result.
Thanks for advanced information

As it's a Bank site,there may be several security step to avoid automation and parsing.
So i don't think i want to look further into this for login to a Bank site.

Yeah I am understand that. But this is for own sole-provider business banks usage.
As I have to keep changing password after a certain periods. I design this for myself & my partner just to avoiding keep enter the wrong credential and got profile locked.
We must go to the home branch and unlock and with document supports.
Hope you are understand. Thanks
