Can you be more specific as to which accounts and what kind of transactions you are looking at?

For the most part I am looking at CDJ entries that hit a Current Liability account

Why not just run the General Ledger but choose only the Balance Sheet accounts. .  It would show every transaction with a description.  You could choose one month or one year.   (Reports > General Ledger> General Ledger.  Go to options to modify the accounts and dates.

Actually it doesn't (it only shows the Vendor not the Transaction description) and I've confirmed this with Sage. I've figured out a work around using  a different AP report but it takes 5x as long due to having to manipulate the export data.

If you're exporting the report to Excel and then manipulating the data to get what you want you should look into using Sage Intelligence -- that's exactly what it works best for is to keep you from having to do the same export and manipulation over and over again.

I guess I was looking at the inventory account that does show transactions, but the cash account does not.  I understand what you are saying now.     

If you are on Accrual, it makes sense because all of the items to be paid are posted to Accounts Payable and not directly to the expense account.   If you did have an account description it would only say Accounts payable since everything is posted there first. 

I would suggest looking at Business Intelligence as Tim at Compbiz suggested.
