I tried updating the DemandPlanning project on my test machine, but it worked for me. I got a new dimension added based on the CustTableCube view. The only odd things I noticed is that the update wizard tried to add the SharedDimensions perspective to the project, but the demand forecast projects were not designed to include those shared dimensions, so I removed SharedDimensions perspective from the list of perspectives to include in the project when updating. If you didn't removed SharedDimensions where updating try doing so. There is already a customer dimension in the demand forecast project; its based on view ReqDemPlanDimCustomer. Perhaps you could modifying that view by adding the fields you wanted in the customer dimension and then set those fields as attributes in the perspective? Or if that does not work either, you could edit the analysis services project using Sql Data Tools to add the new dimension. Sql Data Tools is an optional sql component which provides an editor for analysis services projects. If you don't have sql data tools already, you can probably run the sql installer to add it. To edit the project, after confirming sql data tools is installed, right click on the DemandPlanning analysis services project in aot (under Visual studio projects -> Analysis projects) and choose the Edit command. It should open the project in the editor. There are a few write ups for how to use sql data tools to define an an analysis services projects.
