Consider this idea,
1. Load all opening production orders.
2. Set all material to not include inventory in planing tab.
3. Run requisition to calculate all materials for these production orders, direct them to one fake vendor, reveive all materials.
4. Issue all materials to those opening production order.
5. Reverse GL impact on that vendor's AP.

A simpler way is to overstate your stock import by the WIP quantities and then process through your production journals

This is very dangerous. The main concern here is that your inventory valuation will not be able to match G/L once the client makes g/l postings into your inventory g/l account.

Well in more detail the finished good will be positive adjusted into inventory. The Gen bus. Posting Group will changed so that adjustment account will be WIP.
So in sense

Debit Finished Good Inventory
Credit WIP.
