3. Get Publications, Articles, Distributors and Subscribers for Replication
4. Finding Stored Procedures, Functions and Views published in replication

Now moving here to go ahead with this post and the issue which I faced during adding new subscribers to publication. The issue is as the following which was raised as the message,
