• Adding columns

• Add or drop primary keys

• Add or drop searchable columns from the replication definition

• Specifying different replicate table, table owner, column name, or datatype

• Changing minimal column replication

• Add or alter column-level datatype translations

• Change text, unitext, image, or rawobject column replication status

• Change how the replication definition is used in replicating to a standby database
