Problem conclusion
For the issue with manual category "Current_Week" not appearing in the Reporting. A suggestion to help resolve the issue, using the Powercube Optimizer on the MDC cube file after a rebuild. The pcoptimizer can be run on any existing MDC file. The cube does not need to be rebuilt for the optimizer to be effective, but will need to be re-run after each time the cube is rebuilt. Example: <transformer_install>\bin\pcoptimizer -r=T -v "<powercube_file_path>" > optimize_log.txt
