Reason Codes for Item Journal Entries?

We are currently looking at way we can differentiate our scrap that is posted via the Item Journal.
We currently seperate some items using the General Posting Group, Department codes, and Area Code.

I am looking for simple reason codes to seperate transactions into standard categories like Obsolescense, Damaged in Production, Vendor Quality, Engineering Samples, etc.

We don't have access to the reason code field, not sure what granual this is part of, etc.

We could just create a custom field.

We will most likely either just copy and past monthly transactions using
filters and sorting from the item ledger entry table, or use SRS to write
some scrap reports to seperate out the categories.

I'm curious to hear what other people have done for this to make it quick
and easy without adding too much complexity.

We are on SQL version 4.1

    This first thing that comes to mind is to just setup a new dimension called Scrap and have: Damaged in Production, Vendor Quality, Engineering Samples, etc. as dimension values.

    No coding would be required and you could use the analysis view to see what you have in each.
