Hello All,

At my work, transactional replication is used heavily and lot of critical reports are depending on the data residing at subscribers.

We have three tier replication strategy though.

server1 replicates to -> server2 replicates to ->server3.

The automated reports are run on both server2 and server3.

I wrote a huge code to get the table counts from these servers to check for record counts. But now we are it a point where need to know if record count is correct but what if data is off. For example quantity / Amounts / status code etc. critical fiends.

How would I know what is different in publisher and subscriber data wise?

Is there any tool which would do data/column compare or should I write a lengthy program to achieve this result.

Please any suggestions / advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks much,
-P
