The drawings in SOLIDWORKS are usually made using drawing templates which are specifically designed for each company. In the drawing templates, the unit system is preset along with many other settings to eliminate the setup steps for engineers and drafters. With respect to dimension units, the companies make multiple templates so that the users select what units they want to create their drawing with. For the metric units, the number of decimal places could be pre-selected and whether leading zeros should be shown. However for SOLIDWORKS Imperial Dimensions, the setting will be different.

User can go to Tools - Options - Document Properties - Units.

The best way is set all your setting by template then it's can be re-use.
