Currently once the invoice has been validated once, we cannot just go in to edit the Track as Asset box on Distributions (it would be grayed out). The work around is: we reverse and add a new Distribution line, or cancel and add a new line in order to check the box.  

In doing either of this, we creates a debit to expense, then credits for the cancelled line and another debit to re-enter the line expense with the checkbox checked. In the general ledger, it doubles the expense amount for the two debits summed and then has the credit line, which makes it very confusing. Our goal is to reduce the lines that post to the general ledger.
