Pull Subscription Wizard, Welcome
The Welcome page of the Create Pull Subscription Wizard includes a description of the Create Pull Subscription Wizard and an option to select advanced options during the wizard.
If you enable Show advanced options in this wizard and you create a pull subscription for a snapshot or transactional publication, you will be able to configure the subscription for:
- Updatable subscription options for immediate updating and/or queued updating.
When creating a pull subscription to a merge publication, you will see all the options available whether the Show advanced options in the wizard check box is selected or not.
Updatable Subscriptions
Typically, replicated data is read-only. However, in SQL Server 2000, you have the ability to modify replicated data at the Subscriber by using updatable subscriptions with snapshot replication or transactional replication or by using merge replication. If you need to modify data at the Subscriber using snapshot replication or transactional replication, you can choose immediate updating, queued updating or immediate updating with queued updating as a failover.
For more information, see Updatable Subscriptions.
