Microsoft 365 Administrator Expert MS-102 Practice Question

Because a retention label is explicitly applied to the item, its settings take precedence over an implicit retention policy. When explicit and implicit retention settings conflict, the label wins and its instructions are enforced. Therefore, the document will be retained for the full 10-year period defined by the LegalDocs label and then presented for disposition review, regardless of the five-year delete action in the LegacyCleanup policy. The shorter retention in the policy would have mattered only if both retention settings were of the same type (implicit vs. implicit, or explicit vs. explicit).
