Show Unit Abbreviation for Meters in Maximo Mobile Inspections

In Maximo Mobile, meter units are displayed only in uppercase (e.g., “M”, “K”), but the unit description and abbreviation are not shown.
This creates confusion for technicians because uppercase unit names can represent different meanings. Examples:

“M” (mega) vs “m” (meter or milli)

“K” (kilo) vs “k” (kelvin or different unit abbreviations)

Since Maximo Mobile forces unit names to uppercase and hides the description and abbreviation fields, the user cannot distinguish similar-looking units. This can lead to incorrect meter readings or misinterpretation of values in the field.
