I have a similar issue.  The keys I use are defined as 18,0 and they are unique.  They are the PK in the SQL Server DB I use, so I know they are unique.  But when I bring the table into SSAS Tabular it is displayed in scientific notation.  Even if I change the data type to whole number I am not allowed to set the value to unique because SSAS see the numbers as duplicates but they are not.

 

This needs to be fixed.
