JR57049: Exact match is not used for a web activity that targets based on attribute value filter

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• For the same e-Marketing Spot, two different contents are
  overlapping when a query partially matches two different values
  of the same attribute.
  
  For example, if the attribute "size" has the following values:
  
  Extra Large
  Large
  Medium
  Small
  
  On the same e-Marketing Spot, two web activities are configured,
   one web activity is against the attribute value "Extra Large"
  and the other web activity is against attribute value "Large".
  If both web activities are enabled, and if a product has
  attribute value "Extra Large", both web activities will get
  triggered and results in two pieces of content being displayed.
