Formatting of "K" in Thousands values

Hi - I have some cards that are showing values in thousands with an UPPERCASE "K". I have a request for the K to be lowercase. Anyone knows a way to bypass the auto-formatting of this K?

Thanks

@Lime ,

 

I'm afraid the default "K" can't be converted to the lowercase. You need to create a calculate column using dax below:

Column = 'Table'[Value] / 1000 & "k"

Presenting another approach for other searchers..
You can define explicitly within a measure; PBI has a fairly robust format() function DAX Guide for custom number formatting 
ie. with 1 dec pl

 

format( [Measure], "#,.0,k")
