New functionality added to Odoo
Odoo Studio now lets users add a Signature field directly from the sidebar, making it easier to collect handwritten approvals or confirmations in custom apps. The field is preconfigured for signatures and includes options to link it to a name field for clearer signed records.

Enhancements to existing features
Payroll users can now generate payslips only for employees belonging to their own company. This strengthens company-level separation and helps prevent payroll actions on employees from other accessible companies.

The signature field now fills in the signer name from the actual record data instead of looking at page elements. This avoids using the wrong value when similar fields appear in related records, making signature capture more accurate and predictable.

[COMMUNITY]
- mrp: 'batch' and 'batch_size' fields have been added in community and removed from enterprise so
they can be visible in both, community and enterprise.
- stock: - For better usability, on the stock.rule, "Move Supply Method" has been renamed to "Supply
Method".
- "Partner" to "Contact" on the pickings has been renamed.Users can no longer create or edit stock locations directly from selection fields across inventory-related workflows. This helps keep warehouse location setup controlled and consistent by requiring changes to be made through the dedicated stock location menu.

The salary configurator now asks new employees for first and last names in separate fields, then stores them in a consistent last-name-first format. Existing employee names remain unchanged in one field to avoid incorrect automatic reformatting.
Original PR description
Purpose ======= In the salary configurator people sometimes enter "\<Last name\> \<First name\>" and sometimes "\<First name\> \<Last name\>". This makes the employee's names formatting heterogeneous. We want to always have "\<Last name\> \<First name\>". Specification ============= In the salary configurator font end, ask the last and first names separately than concatenate them for backend. For existing employees, we don't know how the name is formatted, so keep the name in a single input. (and it's impossible to have a clever heuristic) Task 1953003
Warehouse users can no longer create or edit stock locations directly while working with barcode inventory or move line screens. This helps keep location data controlled and consistent by requiring locations to be managed through the proper setup flow.

task-1958487Manufacturing dashboard links now open the more operator-friendly tablet/kanban view instead of a list view, making work orders easier to access and act on. Some duplicate enterprise view customization was also removed because the batch fields are now handled in the standard community view.

For better usability, by this commit, by clicking on those mentioned links, will be landed on tablet view.

This fixes issues in Mexico electronic invoicing after the SOAP service client changed, helping invoices be signed and cancellation responses handled correctly. It also corrects tax-related display/template problems so tax tags are read from the right place.
Original PR description
Now the SOAP client is zeep instead of suds so some changes are required: - the encode of parameter on base64 is not necessary to call the service. - adaptation of the response reading. - Avoid error creating the UUIDS complexType (this is not working yet. Finkok response: Formato de UUIDS incorrecto) Also - fix tax view because the field tag_ids doesn't exist in the account.tax model - Some changes on the cfdi template to get the tag_ids of the taxes. - Fix typo error.
