How do I Retain the default task owner when adding tasks?

The default task owner configured as per type (Administration -> Task -> Type -> Type details page) will be displayed while adding task from other modules.

The task type Work order has the default owner as councillor@abavus.co.uk

If the user wishes to Add task to Asset from right-side menu (Asset detail -> Add –> Task -> Type = Work order) it will prepopulate the default owner as below.

This will be applicable while adding tasks from modules like Asset, Service, Contracts, etc.
