          That's just not how enums work in Apex:




          Although each value corresponds to a distinct integer value, the enum hides this implementation so that you don’t inadvertently misuse the values, such as using them to perform arithmetic. After you create an enum, variables, method arguments, and return types can be declared of that type.




          and note that




          Unlike Java, the enum type itself has no constructor syntax.




          You should treat enums in Apex as abstract, valueless identifiers only. The value PSServices.HARSWARE_SOFTWARE is distinct from the variable HARSWARE_SOFTWARE existing in the outer scope.
