Process Button

On the Intranet Shared Tables form, click this button to process any unprocessed Shared table selections.

This button is enabled if there are any _all table records for this intranet that are not set to Processed. When you click this button, the system will not reprocess any records that are already set to Processed.

The following processing occurs:

  • Validates links between sites on this intranet, to be sure that they are all set up as linked sites. Displays any errors.
  • If an unshared table will now be shared:
    • Copies the information from each shared _all table at the other sites in the intranet to the _all table at the master site, if necessary
    • Removes the shared _all tables from the other sites in the intranet and sets up SQL views from those sites into the master site.
  • If a shared table will now be unshared:
    • Deletes the views into the selected _all table from the other sites on the intranet.
    • Copies the selected _all table from the master site back to each of the other sites in the intranet.
  • Regenerates the replication triggers at the other sites in the intranet.
  • Regenerates the replication triggers at the master site.
