Publish tables (SQL)

Connect to the consolidated database as a user with DBA authority.

Execute a CREATE PUBLICATION statement that specifies the name of the new publication and the table you want to publish.

For example, the following statement creates a publication that publishes the entire Customers table:

CREATE PUBLICATION PubCustomers (
   TABLE Customers
);

The following statement creates a publication that publishes the entire SalesOrders, SalesOrderItems, and Products tables:

CREATE PUBLICATION PubSales (
   TABLE SalesOrders,
   TABLE SalesOrderItems,
   TABLE Products
);
