Error: Syntax error. Missing ')' for CASE Statement
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I've created a text formula field, but I've been hitting a wall with the CASE portion of the formula: I keep getting the "Error: Syntax error. Missing ')'" message. Here's what I created:
Account.Name &
CASE(RecordType.Id, 01260000000UHnk, ' - Customer Support SLA - ',
01260000000Q5Ok, ' - Renewal SLA - ',
' - Non-Standard SLA - '
) &
TEXT(MONTH(Contract.StartDate))+"/" +TEXT(DAY(Contract.StartDate))+"/" +TEXT(YEAR(Contract.StartDate))
Everything seems to be in order, but I cannot figure out what's missing. Any help here would be greatly appreciated!

Have you tried enclosing the record type ids in quotes and see if it works, I think that may be your issue here.

The ID values also need to be in quotes. The error is a bit of a red herring; it's just how the parser reports errors.
Perfect - this worked! Gotta love a platform that utilizes literary devices in error messages.

Your issue seems to be on the values of the Id field and that it needs to be enclosed within quotes as well:
CASE(RecordType.Id,
'01260000000UHnk', ' - Customer Support SLA - ',
'01260000000Q5Ok', ' - Renewal SLA - ',
' - Non-Standard SLA - '
)
