I have built the following Custom function based on the rules for a valid Social Insurance Number in Canada.
Unfortunately it is producing an error "Token Comma expected", highlighting the in statement at the close of the function.
I can not see why. So far as I can tell I have my commas in the right spots.
I am aware the SIN nerds debate about adding the checksum to the odd part, I am pretty sure Pwer Q isn't erring on that.
(SSNumber as text) =>
let
O_Part = Number.FromText(Text.Start(SSNumber,1)) +
Number.FromText(Text.At(SSNumber,2)) +
Number.FromText(Text.At(SSNumber,4)) +
Number.FromText(Text.At(SSNumber,6) +
Number.FromText(Text.At(SSNumber,8)),
E_2 = Number.FromText(Text.At(SSNumber,1)) * 2,
E_4 = Number.FromText(Text.At(SSNumber,3)) * 2,
E_6 = Number.FromText(Text.At(SSNumber,5)) * 2,
E_8 = Number.FromText(Text.At(SSNumber,7)) * 2,
E_Part =
( if Text.Length(Text.From(E_2)) = 1 then E_2 else Number.FromText(Text.Start(Text.From(E_2),1)) + Number.FromText(Text.End(Text.From(E_2),1))) +
( if Text.Length(Text.From(E_4)) = 1 then E_4 else Number.FromText(Text.Start(Text.From(E_4),1)) + Number.FromText(Text.End(Text.From(E_4),1))) +

Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @I_Like_Pi ,
Check this part for the O_Part variable:
Number.FromText(Text.At(SSNumber,6)
It's missing the end ")"
Thank you both 🙂
As you were within seconds of each other I will give one the solution and the other a kudos.
Can't believe I missed that.
you are missing a closing bracket here
Number.FromText(Text.At(SSNumber,6) +
