OnSelect Formula Switch to Other Screens Not Working

Question

Pretty sure this belongs to the Power Apps forum but I'm gonna try my luck here as well:

I have been encountering a simple issue about switching screens depending on the value of the dropdown data card I have. This is the current formula I have:

Switch(
IssueRequestType_Dropdown.Selected,
"Other", Navigate(GenericFormScreen, ScreenTransition.None),
"Manual Commission Adjustment Request", Navigate(CommissionAdjustmentFormScreen, ScreenTransition.None),
"Miscellaneous Adjustment Request", Navigate(MiscellaneousAdjustmentFormScreen, ScreenTransition.None),
"Write-Off Request", Navigate(WriteOffFormScreen, ScreenTransition.None),
Navigate(MainScreen, ScreenTransition.None)
)

My error keeps saying 'Invalid argument type (Text). Expecting a Record value instead'. Can someone please explain this?

All form screens are present in case that's relevant to my question. Thank you.

If you are using a drop down control in Power Apps, try using formula like below:

Switch(
    IssueRequestType_Dropdown.Selected.Value,
    "Other",
    Navigate(GenericFormScreen, ScreenTransition.None),
    "Manual Commission Adjustment Request",
    Navigate(CommissionAdjustmentFormScreen, ScreenTransition.None),
    "Miscellaneous Adjustment Request",
    Navigate(MiscellaneousAdjustmentFormScreen, ScreenTransition.None),
    "Write-Off Request",
    Navigate(WriteOffFormScreen, ScreenTransition.None),
    Navigate(MainScreen, ScreenTransition.None)
)

I have changed IssueRequestType_Dropdown.Selected to IssueRequestType_Dropdown.Selected.Value in formula.
