Thanks Mr. Kayintveen!
As of now i just want to add google analytic conversion script on thankyou page so may i know the script for custom made platform?
Lastly what will be process in google tag manager for this conversion tracking?

Ok that wont be that easy, since you need to add custom e-commerce tracking code on each page, checkout process and such.
The advanced e-commerce tracking tracks more than just products and orders like the normal.
It also tracks behavior (adding things to the cart) but also things like credits and such. so this requires pretty much work.i would love to help out but its not as easy and a lot think, a real developer needs to pick this up.
I'm don't want to be to commercial here, but we can do it for you but have to checkout your platform first to make a estimation. of course a local dev. with analytics experience can do this aswell. -
Hello Kayintveen,
Thanks for support, we are working on
- Custom made platform

Hi Google E-commerce tracking is a lot more than just generating a tag and implementing it.
What kind of platform are you working on?- Magento
- Custom made?
- Wordpress/ woocommerce?
There are a lot of good solutions, but the hardest is it with a custom made store, then you have to add action to send order data towards Google Analytics to be tracked. Let me know what you are using and i'm sure im able to help you out here!

FYI - In my tag manager there is only one container in which 1) tag type is universal analytic and 2) Tracking id is UA......-1 3) Track type - page view and Firing Rules - All pages - {{url}} matches RegEx .*

If you scroll to the bottom of each page you should be able to find the directions translated for other languages.
Depending on what type of e-commerce platform you're on, you might be able to get the software to do some of this for you, like firing the on-page code.

Do custom tracking codes affect indexing?
Hello, My company uses a tracking system that allows our employees to apply a short code snippet to the end of our URLs for marketing attribution. An example of such a code would be: https://www.schoolofmotion.com/?ref_id=moz-test However, in Google Analytics we are seeing duplicates of our content, where the pages with the individual tracking codes are counted separately from the pages without. From a reporting perspective, this is annoying and definitely worth a fix. However, I'm curious if this problem is affecting our search potential as well. Could this tracking system be splitting traffic in Google's eyes? From an SEO perspective, how should we approach this? Would canonical tags fix this duplication issue in Google Analytics? Is there something else that we should use? Thanks in advance. The Moz community is incredible.

Email traffic tracking in Google Analytics
Hello! I have a question about how to assure email traffic is properly tracked in GA > Acquisition > All Traffic > Channels. **First, some background... ** Our company (Wisconsin's largest group dental practice) is about to revamp the way we try to re-capture patients who don't have a future appointment set with us. Part of that process will include emails. Those emails will point back to our website to request an appointment. Now to the question... Is there anything special we should do to assure that links coming to the website and the resulting appointment request goal conversions track appropriately and appear under "Email" in the Default Channel Group of Analytics > Acquisition > All Traffic > Channels area of GA? For example, should we use Campaign URL Builder to establish UTM links? Thanks in advance for any feedback. Erik

How can I make sure that we are only tracking for single URLs?
Is there a way to track in Google analytics where part of the URL is excluded. For example, we need to track when customers complete an application form, however whenever a new form is completed a new URL is created. This makes it difficult to track pages in GA as there are so many URLs.

Reverse an Ecommerce Transaction in Analytics
I am looking for help on using Googles Reverse an Ecommerce Transaction in Analytics work flow documented here: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1037443?hl=en&ref_topic=1037062 Essentially an incorrect transaction was processed that was for such a large number that it is really messing up reporting. I have never used Googles outlined process and from my research it looks like it might not reverse the transaction for the date it was placed but ad a negative amount to offset it on the date submitted. This will still work for year of year reporting but it will mess up the data for two different days in one month. If someone who had done this before has any insight please chime in thanks! Here is a support thread about the reverse transaction messing up a different days data. https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!searchin/analytics/reverse$20transaction/analytics/gDiVNJDwx5I/BwlNJ9D6Lp8J

Ga event tracking and GAC code placement
Just relaunched website and since then specific event tracking has zeroed. I copied event tracking directly from old site so it should work. Overall analytics are fine. Only variable I can think of is where google analytics code is placed. Does GAC code need to be on HTML header or at end of body specifically for event tracking to work? Example: Steripen.com/freedom/... When user clicks "REI" icon, this tracks an event that a user clicked on one of our"retailer links." Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Tracking PDF Downloads in Google Analytics
Hi, I work on a site that allows users to download whitepapers after filling out a form. Once they do this they are redirected to a URL which is the PDF. We use Wordpress and these documents were uploaded to the media center. I've tried researching how to track these downloads in GA, since the code is not present on these pages, but have read a few different answers. Anyone have firsthand experience? Thanks!
