Note When identifying the segments a member belongs to, only those segments are considered where the last publish status for activation is "Success" and the last publish date is closest to the segment's last processed date. Rules and the Promotion Eligibility component can't verify whether members belong to a promotion's associated segment when the segment is being refreshed.
