The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. A method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system includes obtaining a first type of conditional reconfiguration and a second type of conditional reconfiguration, identifying whether at least one condition associated with the first type of conditional reconfiguration and the second type of conditional reconfiguration is fulfilled, wherein in case that a condition for a primary cell (PCell) associated with the first type of conditional reconfiguration is fulfilled, the PCell associated with the first type of conditional reconfiguration is identified as a triggered cell, and in case that conditions for a PCell and a primary secondary cell group cell (PSCell) associated with the second type of conditional reconfiguration are fulfilled, the PCell and the PSCell associated with the second type of conditional reconfiguration are identified as a pair of triggered cells, identifying whether one or more pairs of triggered cells exist, in case that the one or more pairs of triggered cells do not exist, identifying whether one or more triggered cells exist, and in case that the one or more triggered cells exist, applying the first type of conditional reconfiguration.
