Missions that give influence to wrong faction

So, a couple days ago I took a mission from a faction wanting to increase its influence, and upon completing I saw influence granted to a different faction. Uh, I said, maybe I was distracted and took the wrong mission, looks like I'm getting old. Then last night, in a different system, saw a kill mission from Emperor's Grace, high reputation, high influence - perfect to raise my imperial standing! So I accepted the mission, happily killed the wanted criminal, then on return to base saw influence granted... on two federal factions. And of course I got no imperial influence raise. Now, unless I'm really losing my brain, there is something wrong. Anyone else experienced that?
