I have recently done something very similar to what you are doing (MR to
phase low-res ano maps then phase in SHARP and solvent flatten with the
aid of the MR model) and this is what worked:

- keep Se occupancies to 1.0 and Bs to the Wilson B of the data, and let
go only of f"; if you have a native and the native an Se are
isomorphous, use both and declare the Se atoms as Se-S and nothing in
the native;
- you can try use or not use the MR ABCDs in the heavy-atom refinement,
remember that SHARP ANO LLG maps are more sensitive than simple Ano
Fouriers so they might pick up more sites;
- look in the SHARP anoLLG maps and add more Se if you see any, repeat
to flatness; 
- when solvent flattening use the model as Clemens suggested

Good luck!

Ciao
