OK.

You mean with data element totals without any category details?

You can try to look for rows in e.g. the table analytics_2013 with de =
'<uid of a selected data element>' and see if the data there make sense.
MARPS categories or MARPS Partners (your categories) will have a column
each in the analytics table. Look up the uids of these two categories (in
dataelementcategory) and look for column names with these uids (the uid
value is the column name). The row values of these category columns are
uids of the categoryoptions (can be looked up in dataelementcategoryoption).
So a bit of mapping to do, but you should be able to see what is there.
If these two category columns are missing or have no values at all, then
there is something wrong.

If you haven't done it already I would also try some more trouble shooting
in the pivot tables trying each of these categories alone with 1 or more
values selected, for 2013 and Rwanda to see if there is any data at all.
Also try to use the categories as filter.

You can also try the same thing in Data Visualizer. The categories are
available as dimensions there as well.
