Export File Naming - How to add variable

Hello everyone, 

I am having an issue when creating a PDF file as an output. 

I have tried this, with both “document PDF [Writer]” and “FeatureWriter”.

The file I am creating has many incoming attributes, one of which is a date. 

My problem is, when I add this date to the file name, it exports two files for me, one without the date and one with it. The file without the date has everything in it except for the date, the file with the date, only has the date value in it. 

This happens not just with the date, if I add any of the other variables, they will end up creating two files for me. 

What am I doing wrong that is causing this? 

How can I troubleshoot this?
