Tracking Sales to Sources
-
We're trying to set up a commission system for the different people who contribute to our site.
We just want to see a list of transactions and the path back to source for all of them. We haven't been able to figure it out and know other ecommerce sites have had to have figured this out.We have GA Ecommerce tracking on. How can we find last months sales:
source / medium / keyword / landing page / revenue / etc
Sorry if this is an obvious question. We have spent a lot of time trying to figure it out.

We are still searching for a solution to this. We have worked on it though and this is what we've come up with. Please understand we're just driving to the finish line anyway we can with hopes someone has found a better way to do it.
I attached 2 videos of what we are looking for and sort of explaining where we are at.
Thanks In advance.

You're very welcome.
Re: More detailed information: Custom reporting in Google Analytics should allow you to do all of them. You should be able to drag all the appropriate metrics and dimensions you need!
So instead of "Standard Reporting", go to "Custom Reporting" along the top.

Thank you Josh,
IT's very close to what I'm looking for, that is the closest solution we have come up with as well.
Here is where that method is falling short for us.
We want to be able to see more than they are showing us. All the dimensions we want to see are in the list, but we can only select 2 at a time.
Can we see more than just Source/medium plus a secondary. Is it possible to see
"source / medium / keyword / landing page / revenue / etc" in 1 report somehow?

Hi Christopher,
I think... If you go into the new analytics and select your site. Go to Traffic Sources in blue down the left, and then to Sources below that. Select All Traffic (or if you want a specific one, select that instead).
Now in the main part of this page, below the orange bar, then the grey bar and then the "All Traffic". You will have "Explorer" and below that "E-commerce". Select "E-commerce".
This will add a number of elements to the table below, which you can then add a "Secondary dimension" of landing page (or whatever else). You can burrow down into that information to find everything you're looking for I think. Then just change the dates to the window that you need.
Let me know if that's not quite the information you are looking for!

Issue for Sales Team & Funnelling Smaller Orders
Hi, Hoping somebody might have some suggestions for funnelling smaller orders and larger orders on different journeys. Basically, 90% of our business comes from 10% of customers with larger orders, like contractors and organisations who fill out leads or call us. But about 90% of the sales teams time is taken up from handling lots of smaller calls, which account for <5% of our revenue. Obviously we still want these smaller orders, but would anyone have any suggestions on moving these customers away from phone calls? We've tried to add as much content to the site as possible to answer they're questions, but they seem to just call anyway. Hope you can help!

Google Ecommerce Tracking
Hey all, I have GTM set up on a site and I am trying to enable the Ecommerce tracking functionality. My problem is this, I have access to the basket variables all they way through the checkout funnel to the payment page, but they are then lost on the payment completed page. Does anyone know how I can pass the value of the basket across to the payment completed page so I can mark the transaction completed with an actual value present. I cannot post hidden input fields or change the url get variables as the third party system that us used fails. I have thought maybe javascript calls, but not managed to get to work as yet. Can the Google session pass and hold them in the cookies that are set? Any help greatly appreciated. Cheers Tim

Help! Tracking Conversion Source of Specific Users: Possible? How?
Just as an example, let's say we generate a website lead from John Smith. Can we trace John Smith's activity back through AdWords or Analytics to see exactly where he came from and (with AdWords for example) what keyword he typed in before clicking our ad and converting? Thanks for the help!

Adwords Tracking
Hi, With Adwords conversion tracking is it worth allow Analytics data in as well? Does that confuse the adwords tracking data? Does it only include Analytics data that has been set up for conversion tracking? I hope i am asking the right questions 🙂

How can I track the traffic source/keyword of form submissions?
I'm using Google Analytics on www.nhfinehomes.com and would like to track the source of leads submitted via form submissions. Ideally, I could track if the lead originated from organic search (and what keyword phrase), PPC, referral links, etc. Is this possible with Google Analytics and if so, can anyone point to some documentation on how to do this or better yet someone who can help me set this up? This site is running ASP.NET and uses JQuery so there is not a 'traditional' thank you page that I can reference. I'm not a programmer and do not pretend to be one! Thanks in advance. Link

How to track PPC conversions?
I use both adwords and Microsoft Adcenter. I am looking to be able to track my conversions from each PPC site. I do not have a "Thank You" or "Check Out" page that I can tag because any sales that I make are through clicks on a link that goes offsite to an affiliate company that I receive commission from. However, the link on my site is a "Buy Now" button, so to get some idea of which source is giving me better conversions I'd like to know whether adcenter or adwords is sending more people that end up clicking this link. Canb anyone suggest a way or a program to set up in this manner? Thanks in advance for your help!

Can I track user journeys from a particular source?
We want to track users from a particular campaign to see what they do when they get to the site. The site generates revenue from clicks out so we want to be able to see whether visitors from a particular source click on multiple deals. i.e. enters from the source and then clicks on 3 different deals that take the user to other sites. Using GA, can I track this by implementing UTM on both the campaign links and outgoing links? Can I see exactly how many deals the average user is clicking on? As far as I know I can: Track visitors from the campaign Track overall clicks on deals Divide click outs by visitors But I can't track how many deals the visitors from campaign A clicked on... or can I?
