Manual Data Entry For Reports

When creating a report it is frustrating to see empty fields and having to go back to that specific line item to enter the data then create the report. An example of this is dates for submittals, If there could be an user friendly data entry catered to a report which could be edited before generating a report, thus you can see all the empty fields that need input or updated. This would be much more effective and efficient rather than having to go back to each line item.
