Sales invoice - Option to add a new line between existing lines
Hi Community, we need to have the option to add a new line between the invoice instead to go to the bottom part of the invoice to create it, and then moving it where we need it, many times I need to add a line in a large invoice but to make it, I need to go down to the bottom part, add a blank new line and move it where I need. If we can just make right-click and add a new blank line where we need it, it will be easy to create or amend an invoice.

Hi everyone, thanks for sharing your feedback on this idea.
We understand how being able to insert a new line exactly where you need it in a long invoice would make editing much quicker and easier, especially when you’re updating existing line items.
We’ve reviewed your suggestion and moved it to Gaining Support, so other members of the community can vote and add comments to share how this change would improve their invoicing workflow.
Please keep adding your use cases and examples — this helps our product team better understand the impact and where this could make the biggest difference.
We’ll continue to monitor the feedback here and share any updates as we have them

Yes please - I spend far too much time doing this mindnumbing insertion process.

+1 Adele - it is a complete drag (excuse the pun) to drag lines up from the bottom. Our invoices can be 4 or 5+ pages long, and this also doesn't work on an ipad which is the primary device for some (which means I then have to log onto computer to drag a line up for them).

Would value this change in relation to manual journals as well as I always believe it is good practice to have well organised and structured journals.

The ability to insert a row amongst existing rows of an invoice or quote instead of adding to the bottom of the table and having to drag it up to where it needs to be. This will be particularly useful for large invoices with multiple jobs within them that have been saved in 'draft' format and items such as client changes / additions are been added to them at a later date.

To have the ability to insert a new line into a long invoice with the click of the mouse instead of having to drag a new lines up several pages to the required position.

You can drag the line up to where you want it, from the 4 dots on the left hand side. Not ideal maybe but it achieves the desired result.

currently only allows you to add lines at the bottom
