Single group condition:
City = Pune OR Gender = Female AND Contact Type = Lead

How system reads it:
City = Pune OR (Gender = Female AND Contact Type = Lead)

Why this happens:
AND is checked before OR

Result:

  • All users from Pune
  • Or users who are Female + Lead

Problem:
Pune users may match even if they are not leads

Better way:

  • Group 1: City = Pune OR Gender = Female
  • Group 2: Contact Type = Lead

Final logic:
(City = Pune OR Gender = Female) AND Contact Type = Lead

Correct result:

Only users who are from Pune or Female, and must be LeadAccess Filtered Contacts
