Projdef vars in Px transformer - compilation error

[videsh77]

We have some params defined in the project definition. We use those in our job by using $ qualifier.
It works fine for stages like sequential file, DB stage. But it seems it do not work for Px Tansformer derivation. We get complilation error if system variable is used in the Px derivation.

Can someone explain me, what setting we need to have project wide so can use 'System Environment Variables' in the transformer?

Thanks in advance.

Are you using the expression editor to build the expression in the Transformer stage?

Environment variable job parameters should (do) work perfectly well in parallel Transformer stages.

Can you post one of your expressions?
If you're not using the expression editor, can you please do so and note whether the expression thus produced is different from the one that is not working? (And let us know.)

In the transformer, at derivation we just mention the 'System Environment Variable'. Say parameter user is defined with PROJDEF, then it is sourced in at Job parameter as, $user. In the transformer derivation for this particular coulmn, mapping derivation is just $user.

It gives error only after, we compile the job.

Please also verify that the default value for the job parameter (in the job properties) is $PROJDEF, not PROJDEF.

Does this occur if the default value is something else?

And, while you're testing, can you also try the default value $ENV ?
