A320 FMGS present position

Hi Guys,

Is there a quick way to make a present position waypoint, then use it to fly track & distance from there?

The way I use at the moment:
1. go to DATA, position, type out the present co-ordinates
2. go to DIR and press 1L, then store the waypoint e.g. LL01
3. type bearing/distance of the new waypoint e.g. LL01/270/20 and enter it into 1L of the DIR page.

Surely there's a quicker way... any clues?
