I have ContractID in my dimension - but it sorts it as a character not an
integer:

This is what it's doing:

7998

7999

8

8049

8890

9

9122

9733

It could be as simple as changing the Sort By from Name to Key.
Or be explicit about it by adding another field in your DSV called
ContractIDSort, and do a T-SQL Cast on it.
Then add another attribute to the dimension. Then make the
ContractID, original attribute, as a Sort By the attribute
ContractIDSort.

That should eliminate the issue.
