sql server replication : Replication Chain Problem

Is it possible to setup a merge replication chain where you have a Head
Office (HO) which is a publisher to a Region Office (RO) subscriber which is
a publisher to a Store Office (SO) subscriber where the data travels both
directions fully? eg. HO<->RO<->SO.

From testing, it appears that if data is changed at the SO, then it only
gets merged to the RO, not the HO as well.

this should work. As long as all the downstream subscribers have a lower
priority than the upstream publisher/subscriber the data should move as you
desire. You might want to check to make sure that the missing data isn't
logged in the conflict tables.

No issues. I've built these as deep as 16 levels with data flowing in both
directions.
