Dear mr. zengxinle:
Thank you for your interest in our construction solutions based on Microsoft technologies. you may be aware that dynamics SL (formerly known as Solomon) is integrated with Microsoft Project Server. project Manager's typically use MS projects to manage schedules, assign and manage resources, track project milestones and project profitability. dynamics Sl is used to provide the project accounting and financial accounting functionality. we also provide a web portal to provide web-based project management information, including document management.
Additionally, we have a senior projects consultant who speaks Chinese. Please let me know how I can help.

My replies:
Sir:
Thanks to answer. We are planning a it stratigy for our company.
We have selected choice from SAP, Oracle, and Microsoft. But we have no experince for ERP system.
My English is limited. May I not deliver my idea in English correctly.
I find the product of micorsoft (Solomon), it is a good product for our bussiness.
But the Solomon have not Chinese version.
We also can't find other users using Solomon.
You can help us, but the distance in two country is too far.
Can you give some example of Solomon use in contruction industry.
Thanks.
