My Normal trigger campaign is still running after my high priority campaign even after including it's triggers and filters in my own campaign. Why ?

Question

Objective: I need to create a campaign which accepts future date in "Marketing Consent Event Date" and "Privacy Notice Given Date" fields.
Problem: There is one trigger campaign created at the operational level which triggers when the Privacy Notice value gets updated and it changes the Privacy Notice date to be {{system.date}}. However, I created my trigger campaign (which includes the triggers for Marketing Consent, Marketing Consent Event date, Privacy Notice, Privacy Notice Given date triggers and filters) and set the priority as "High" so that I can override the already created trigger, and set the dates to be {{system.date}} + 1days in the flow step as can be seen in the snapshot below:

The issue is my campaign is overriding the operational trigger campaign and setting the dates to be 1 day in future but after a couple of seconds, the operational campaign runs and changes the Privacy Notive Given date back to {{system.date}}.
Is there any reason why this operational campaign is running when I have already included all the triggers and filters from it in my own campaign ? How can I ensure it to remain active but not changing the dates ?

This is bound to happen as you have 2 campaigns that trigger on the same Data Value Change for the Privacy Notice field (assuming values in the New Value constraint are the same for both) but have different flows. You need to add filter conditions or constraints to the trigger so the campaign you don’t want to trigger doesn’t get triggered. I’d not recommend using filters that may not guarantee the same result every time for this, e.g., Not Data Value Changed “Privacy Notice Given Date” by your non-operational campaign within the past few minutes (the one that you have added snapshots below). This hacky filter to suppress people from flowing through the Operational campaign assumes that the non-operational campaign always runs before the operational campaign which may not always be the case even though you have overridden priority for the non-operational campaign.

Another thing to keep in mind, is that you can always make use of 'request campaign' functionality, to help control leads flowing in campaigns in the correct order.
