What is the best way to account for product samples expense in QB Enterprise?

What is the best way to process and account for Product Samples in QB Enterprise? I currently create a $0 invoice to a customer named "SAMPLES" and this takes the item out of inventory and this correctly does not affect my sales for the period. However, it does overstate my COGS. I figured I could just use the Reclassify Transactions tool under Company but that does not allow you to reclassify the account of item-based transactions. I guess I will great a General Journal entry to correct the COGS for the periods that need to be corrected, but how can I avoid this in the future. I need the item to be credit from Inventory and the debit to Samples Expense.
