Physical inventory - converted items to raw material

Hello,We do a physical Inventory every year for one of our customers. They just changed ERP systems to SAP and now do not care about our converted parts, But they want us to convert back all of this material into its raw parent parts (which is how we have to report back to them). We currently have a 200 line excel spreadsheet with all the equations imbedded in it. This is so time consuming though as we only have a day to do this physical and we are stuck plunking all of the parts we convert back to its raw materials. Epicor has all of the Qty/ Parents already, is their a report or something I can build to have E10 do this work for us?

MRP to generate Unfirm Jobs per the SO already entered not Forecast

Hi,I am trying to figure out if it is possible to get MRP suggestions per SO instead of by Date. We currently use Forecast entry to enter our Customers demand. We also enter SOs before we run MRP daily. But if I run MRP after enter 5 SO for the same product due the same day I just get 1 MRP suggestion when I really have to make 5 jobs so they ship and bill per the POs we receive from our customer. Also I have to have these 5 orders as some of these jobs take a lot of run time on a machine so we try and break them up for production planning purposes. Am I just missing a step somewhere in MRP or a setting feature? or does Epicor not work like that? Currently I am just stealing any other MRP suggestions that come up for later dates or if there is none I have to create a quick job to enter these then just re run MRP to pull the forecast demand in after I firm up my jobs.
