google analytics and enhanced ecommerce reports

Post by psldesigns »

You can turn on enhanced reporting in google and when turned on you have access to many other reports. Specifically, we are looking into the coupon report. Currently, we are getting the message that the coupon is "not set". So this info isn't being sent from ShopSite. We have google analytics turned on in ShopSite (Merchandising > Google > Analytics, universal analytics). I'm not sure how i would go about adding the coupon information. There is info here:

Code: Select all

which then lead me here:

Code: Select all

https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/enhanced-ecommerce#measuring-actvities
But I'm still not sure how to incorporate that into ShopSite or if it means I need to do all of analytics through templates and not Merchandising > Google > Analytics.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Although ShopSite is not using the newer Enhanced Analytics module, it is currently passing coupons as lineitems with the special category of 'Coupon', so it may be possible to sort and analyze coupon usage from those lineitems in Analytics.
