How to: Synchronize a Pull Subscription (SQL Server Management Studio)

Subscriptions are synchronized by the Distribution Agent (for snapshot and transactional replication) or the Merge Agent (for merge replication). Agents can:

Run continuously
Run on demand
Run on a schedule

For more information about specifying synchronization schedules, see How to: Specify Synchronization Schedules (SQL Server Management Studio).

Synchronize a subscription on demand from the Local Subscriptions folder in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.
