How to switch display format of measurement unit?

121 Views

Hi,

How can I switch display format of measurement unit from commercial format to technical format?

I find each measurement unit has four external formats:

commercial (three upper-case characters)

technical (six-character)

short text (ten-character)

long text (thirty-character)

I've maintained both commercial and technical formats, but when it displays with key figure in Query, it only shows in commercial format. For example, if I display a key figure value with unit MI, it displays in this way:

300 MI. But I want to display 300 Mile, which requires more than 3 characters for unit.

BTW, I found a checkbox "Commercial meas.unit" in unit details, but no matter I check it or not, it still displays in commercial format.

Please help me. Thanks!
