Hi,
So there is a shedule for purge and the job, once the index has been setup at the remote site , what exactly does the shedule do?
since any updates to the table would result in the index automatically being updated at each site?

Also you state the row Id would possibly be different, is that coorect? since the tables are supposed to be replicated, the only difference would be added or deleted records shurly.
