Am trying to understand the difference between "Select overrides DEFINED IN the following management packs" and "Select overrides APPLIED TO the following management packs" in the new SCOM 2019 UR2 Overrides Tracking report

    @Tarek Nabeel , Based on my research, I find that if "DEFINED IN" option is selected all overrides that are defined in the specified Management Packs will be selected. For "APPLIED TO" option the report filters data to select only Overrides that override elements in the list of selected Management Packs. Default value is "DEFINED IN". We can see more details in the following link:
    https://systemcenter.wiki/?GetElement=Microsoft.SystemCenter.DataWarehouse.Report.Override&Type=Report&ManagementPack=Microsoft.SystemCenter.DataWarehouse.Report.Library&Version=7.1.10226.1177
    Note: Non-microsoft link, just for the reference.

    Hope it can help.
