Also understand that any user group membership changes are not known on the
client until user logs on the client (without cached credentials). So you
may see 2 logons after creating the advertisement and it actually being
executed. But it is contingent on client not using cached credentials,
discovery methods & their frequency, collection updates cycles and client
requesting policy.

Hope this helps.
