Error in Parellel transformer using Env Variable

[Amar_nath]

Hi Guru's,
I am doing a simple job-
Seq File -> Transformer -> Seq File
In the trnsformer I am using an environment variable (directly assigning the value to a column).
No other transformations are there, simple one to one mapping.
I am getting an error-

Please suggest me where I am doing wrong.

You can't use an environment variable 'there'.
The workaround is to use GetEnvironment("envvarname")
