Subscription Properties

To view or edit a subscription's properties, double-click its Browser or list entry. The property sheet tabs and fields listed here are those available by default, before any customization of the interface by you or an administrator.

The General tab contains the following properties:

Property

Description

Process

[read-only] Specifies the replication process to which the subscription belongs.

Name/Code/Comment

Identify the object. The name should clearly convey the object's purpose to non-technical users, while the code, which is used for generating code or scripts, may be abbreviated, and should not normally include spaces. You can optionally add a comment to provide more detailed information about the object. By default the code is generated from the name by applying the naming conventions specified in the model options. To decouple name-code synchronization, click to release the = button to the right of the Code field.

Stereotype

Extends the semantics of the object. You can enter a stereotype directly in this field, or add stereotypes to the list by specifying them in an extension file.

Publication

Specifies the publication that contains the data to be replicated.

Data Connection

Specifies the connection to the remote database to which the data must be replicated.

Keywords

Provide a way of loosely grouping objects through tagging. To enter multiple keywords, separate them with commas.

The following tabs are also available:
  • Where Clause - lets you create Where clauses in a script editor to filter rows out of a table or view to subscribe to (see Article Properties).
