Metric unit for bolts in BOM table

Hello Community.

 

I have an issue regarding the bolt unit presentation on BOM table. I am working in Plant 3D 2023 version.

 

My Project setup is set to Mixed-metric unit and even though I have made the bolt sets from DIN EN Pipes and Fittings Catalogue, when I generate the ISO drawings, size for my bolts is presented as nominal diameter in inches x length, i.e. 3/4''x90 (please refer to the Attachment 1). 

 

Is there any way to switch this to metric units, i.e. can I have representation for my bolt set only in metric units (for example M20x90)?

 

Every help would be highly appreciated.
