128 = user defined function

160 = synonym schema only
column_tracking int Setting for column-level tracking; where 1 means that column-level tracking is on, and 0 means that column-level tracking is off.
resolver_info nvarchar(255) Name of the article resolver.
vertical_partition bit If the article is vertically partitioned; where 1 means that the article is vertically partitioned, and 0 means that it isn't.

0 = The filtering for the article either is static or doesn't yield a unique subset of data for each partition; that is, it's an "overlapping" partition.

1 = The partitions are overlapping, and data manipulation language (DML) updates made at the Subscriber can't change the partition to which a row belongs.

2 = The filtering for the article yields non-overlapping partitions, but multiple Subscribers can receive the same partition.

3 = The filtering for the article yields non-overlapping partitions that are unique for each subscription.
