Exclamation Custom fields and Analysis Services cubes

Hello everybody.
I defined a custom field for a resource. It is a text type field with a lookup table.
The field is successfully added to the analysis services cubes.

However, when I try to use it through the pivot table controls in PWA, then it seems as if the field is unrelated with the corresponding resource.

For example, I wanted to produce a report with a breakdown of the timesheet hours according to the custom field values. What I get reported as the hours for any possible value of the custom field, is the total hours of the project (for any resource).

I read in a russian site (translated through Google) that this is a bug to be fixed after SP1. Does anyone know anything about this?

Can you provide a link for the site to which you are referring?
