Enter Vendor Invoice - "click to add a line"

When entering invoices it is obvious that they have to be distributed, why do we have to "click to add a line"? I heard that phrase so many times during training it drove me crazy. I think it would be more efficient to have the distribution auto populate and we can fill it in as we go along. Similar to American Contractor, which also had a "distribute" option if you needed to split the invoice which I think that is where the "click to add a line" should come into play.

    I know what you mean - however, if it is of any help, when we are entering in hundreds of invoices, a lot of ours are 1 line entries - unless we are receiving against a PO.  When we enter a Vendor (we Control F5 for repeat vendors from the last entry). Then after entering in the Inv# and amount, we TAB and F5 for dates - We PAGE DOWN to get to the next tab for Distribution, and then "click to add a line" is boxed and we hit ENTER and it opens and expands for us to enter our information. - This helps to cut down from having to stop and grab the mouse and only works for the 1 entry that I am aware of at this point.  You can still use the mouse and Click for another line.........but I understand how important it is to speed up any process that we can. Short cuts help to speed up things and I use them  as much as I can.
