I have 3 collections: A, B, C.
first I advertised one package to A, and I had first report for the advertisement RA.
2 days later I changed the collection of the advertisement to collection B, I had second report RB
3 days later I changed the collection of the advertisment to collection C, I had third report RC.
RA, RB and RC are produced by the same query script.

Here is question:
Does RB based on RA or recreated by the change of the collection?
What will happen to those PCs in collection A if advertisement changed to collection B? will they be installed again or be uninstalled?
I tried to google what I am looking for, but no satifactory results. any reference would be greatly appreciated.

The report is cumulative as long as you are using the same advertisement.
Generally the program will not re-run where it was successfull in the past.
I generally use different advertisements so that reporting will be seperate, particularly between deployment phases (testing and full deployment).
