If you fix that typo like this:
var id = "23188xtr";
var lastName = "Smith";
var userName = id.toUpperCase();
userName += "#" + lastName.toUpperCase();
Then your code will pass, though it's also worth mentioning that you can condense the last two lines of your code into one like this:
var id = "23188xtr";
var lastName = "Smith";
var userName = id.toUpperCase() + "#" + lastName.toUpperCase();
That results in the same string but is a bit more concise.
