3500847 - How to restore the dimension hierarchy with a custom member order in BPC

Symptom

In system A, the hierarchy of a dimension is maintained with a custom order for the members in the same level. For example:

TOP_ENTITY
--ENTITY_B
----Z123
----A123
----B123
--ENTITY_A
----C5
----C3
----C1

It is expected to have the exact same hierarchy in another system B.

Note that if you only copy paste the values of the PARENTH1 column from system A to system B, the hierarchy of this dimension in system B would follow the alphabetical order as below:

TOP_ENTITY
--ENTITY_A
----C1
----C3
----C5
--ENTITY_B
----A123
----B123
----Z123
