Issues with Inventory.

SUGGESTED

Hello, my company currently uses inventory management to track in house supplies. We are a medical facility, that has 70+ departments.  We do not sell the inventory outside of the company, however as departments need supplies we do an "Inventory Issue" to issue supplies to that department. We have set up each department within the company as a "Job", and we issue supplies to that Job so that the cost is moved to the GL account associated with that department. At the end of each month, we run a job cost entry to post the sales tax to each department for the associated items that were issued during the month. This process was created long before I was hired. Is this the appropriate or easiest way to handle this process? If this is the preferred method, is there anyway to change the description of inventory issues when they post to the GL. Currently, every item shows up on the GL as "Inventory Transaction (ISSUE)". It would be helpful to see a description of the item that was issued. Any help is greatly appreciated. 

Thanks,
