Table replication was created particularly for Thereforeâ„¢ Online customers, or Thereforeâ„¢ systems where the Thereforeâ„¢ server does not have direct access to the database server. It allows customers to replicate the data to Thereforeâ„¢ and use it to Create a New Referenced Table.
Please see Table Replication in the reference section for more details on individual settings.
