Ability to assign a device to a ticket regardless of contact
So recently we discovered that when you assign a device to a ticket, it assigns that same device to any ticket associated with the ticket contact. So let's say you have 4 tickets open for the same user, if you assign a device to one of those tickets, Atera assigns that same device to all of that user's tickets.
This is problematic for may of our clients because we have quite a few clients that utilize multiple systems whether it be they have a desktop and a laptop or sometimes it may be something like a multi-user device where the same person may run into an issue with two different systems they open tickets for.
In other cases it may be a situation where a user opens a ticket or we open a ticket on their behalf and need to be able to assign devices to tickets regardless of who the contact is.

We have clients that internally send their help requests to one person. That person is responsible for opening tickets, and wants to see the replies. In some cases without contacting the actual end user. It would be helpful to assign a device to that ticket, vs a contact name. Possible new fields, on behalf of "User name" and that user's "Device Name"
