How do I set: Parts List - Edits Parts List Style - QTY - Unit Type - Area

I would like to set my QTY in my parts list to in^2 in Inventor 2014.

 

I have set my parameters in my IPT to accept in^2 (Steps - 000.png)

STEPS to issue:

 

Right click on Parts list.

Select> Edit Parts List Style

In Default Column Settings Section click on QTY under Property.

Format Column: QTY Dialog boxes pops up.

Select Radial Button for Apply Units Formatting(Steps - 001.png)

 

Under Unit Type there is no option for Area (in^2) which is what I need so that I do not receive "Incompatible Units Error" in my parts list.

 

Is there a way to define and/or set Area for Unit Type?

There are only options for Length, Angularity, Volume, Mass, Unitless.

 

I could leave it as "Use Default Formatting" and the parts list will display my units in in^2 but I do not want a preceeding zero on my units that is why I need to use "Apply Units Formatting" so I can remove the preceeding zero.

(Steps - 002.png)

 

Thanks,
