Getting ID of certain checkboxes and disabling them

I'm trying to get the ID of certain checkboxes and set the boxes to disabled based on conditions. However, I get this error on "Add:767 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'disabled' of null at HTMLInputElement.el.addEventListener.event (Add:767)". Why is it returning null? Am I not getting the element by ID?

This is the JS:

    var days = 0;
    const checkboxMonthElement = document.querySelectorAll('.checkboxMonth');
    const checkboxDofmElement = document.querySelectorAll('.checkboxDofM');


    var test123 = document.getElementById('#Schedule_DofMInfo_27__IsChecked');

    checkboxMonthElement.forEach(el => el.addEventListener('change', event => {

        days = 0;

        for (var i = 0; i < checkboxMonthElement.length; i++) {


            var NofD = parseInt($(checkboxMonthElement[i]).attr('data-test'));

            if (checkboxMonthElement[i].checked) {
                if (days < NofD)
                    days = NofD;
            }
        }
        console.log(days);

        if (days = 28) {
            console.log("Days is 28");
            console.log(test123);

           document.getElementById('#Schedule_DofMInfo_27__IsChecked').disabled === true;
        }





    }));

Here is the HTML:

   <li class="list-group-item" style="display:inline-block">
                    <div class="checkbox-inline" id="checkboxDofM">

You should do it either using

$('#Schedule_DofMInfo_27__IsChecked').attr("disabled", true);

or

document.getElementById('Schedule_DofMInfo_27__IsChecked').disabled === true; // (without the dash)

It's because you're including '#' in your ID when using getElementById, which is not necessary and is causing getElementById to look for an element whose id literally includes a '#'. So instead of doing

document.getElementById('#Schedule_DofMInfo_27__IsChecked')

do this instead:

document.getElementById('Schedule_DofMInfo_27__IsChecked')
