Assign Employee at Work Order level

Optimize accountability and follow-up by assigning an employee directly at the work order header level. This enhancement introduces a new 'Employee' field in the create and update Work Order pages, enabling planners to specify an in-charge employee for the entire work order. 

This feature boosts operational efficiency by clarifying responsibility, which is particularly valuable in industries like construction and heavy equipment maintenance where clear ownership ensures timely completion.
