Distinct Count Measure Group not distinct in MDX script

$

I am attempting run the following MDX query to determine the distinct amount of transaction numbers for a set including 2 dimension attributes. (POS and Concierge)  When I run the query, I seem to be getting the distinct amounts for each added to together.  If the same transaction number exists in both, they are both counted.  However if I attempt to get the same result using an Excel Pivot table, I get the desired transaction number count.  Could anyone help me with getting this result in the MDX query?

WITH SET [Week] AS StrToMember("[Date].[Hierarchy - Fiscal].[Fiscal Week].&[2012]&[48]") SET [Store] AS {[Financial Transaction Channel].[Transaction Channel Desc].&[POS], [Financial Transaction Channel].[Transaction Channel Desc].&[CONCIERGE]} MEMBER [Store Transactions With Returns] AS

SUM([Week] * [Store], [Measures].[Operational Transactions Count]) SELECT { [Store Transactions With Returns] } ON COLUMNS, { [Week] } ON ROWS FROM EDW

Results: Store Transactions With Returns

Wk. 48 - 2012 78,636

The same attempt using an Excel Pivot table yields this:

Row Labels Operational   Transactions Count
Year 2012 78,368
Half 2 - 2012 78,368
  Qtr. 4 - 201278,368
    December - 2012 78,368
      Wk. 48 - 201278,36878,636
         1 US STORES 78,368
          CONCIERGE3,668
          POS74,968
Grand   Total 78,368

If you add the POS and Concierge amounts, you get 78,636.  Which is the same result I am getting from my MDX query, but after I went through the transactions line by line, I was able to determine that 78,368 is the correct amount of distinct transaction numbers.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
