Option to choose Target or Schedule dates when creating a work order.

When you create a new work order the requester should be able to provide dates when they think the work order should be targeted this could be many months ahead, and beyond any scheduling period. Some Maximo sites would not want the Schedule dates to be entered with a new work order as this gives the impression that the work order has been scheduled by the planners/schedulers, which is not the case. 

There should be a System Property to say whether the two dates used when creating a new work order should be the Target Start/Finish or the Schedule Start/Finish.
