I can't say I know our complete ROHS process but part of it involved 
creating a program to write the complete bill of material for an item to 
an Excel spreadsheet.
The ROHS specific information for each component is stored in the user 
fields in the MAPICS VENITF file. 

For each component in the bill of material the ROHS specific information 
includes:
Status
Compliance Date
Reportable
File Number
Comment

We added a card to the VENITF maintenance in Browser that let's the users 
maintain these user fields.
