Dimension Members showing Empty in Excel

Good Day All.I am hoping this is not a bizarre or vague topic but its totally weird on my end. So basically I have a dimension called DimSegment which holds segment names for our business. It joins to my fact table by FK segment_id. When the DW loads, data is loaded for relevant segments as the data exists. However when the data is viewed in excel, the weird thing is, every now and again, the segments are coming back empty. In order for me to fix this issue, I have to either reprocess the dimension or in some cases process the whole cube and refresh the excel data.There is no rhyme or reason to this happening. Not all segments in the dimension have matching data in the Fact but I dont see how that should affect the segments that do indeed have data in the DW. All other dimensions work fine except for this one and for the other segments, I dont always have data for all the members in those dimension yet no problems.Before I go deleting data out of the dimension for those segments that do not have data in the FACT table. Does anyone know what may be causing this?
