Research direction

Start by reproducing processing for the 'Order' partition of the 'Order' measure group in the WideWorldImporters cube. Investigate the missing '12/31/2018' key in the Date attribute and the Fact_Order column 'Picked_x0020_Date_x0020_Key'; the issue does not name files or tests, and done would require a confirmed correction that lets processing complete without the reported error.
