likewise here - if we remove custom variable name/val pair from the beacon the 
data is tracked as expected.

I have also started getting this error and it related to the 'name' parameter 
in the AddItem. Right now i can see the transaction being updated in the 
Analytics but the quantity field is not updated as it is related to AddItem.. I 
get this error: 

Running command: ga(ecommerce:send) analytics_debug.js:9
Set called on unknown field: "items". 

The transaction is added fine:

We're having the same problem on a site that's being developed in a subfolder 
of the old site's main domain. (site.com/beta)
The old site (site.com) has ga.js analytics code if that matters.

Here is the tracking code (located after the thank you page content):
<script type="text/javascript"> 
ga('require', 'ecommerce', 'ecommerce.js');

ga('ecommerce:addTransaction', {
  'id': '1392907062',
  'affiliation': 'site.com',
  'revenue': '410.00',
  'shipping': '0.00',
  'tax': '82.00',
  'currency' : "HRK" 
});

ga('ecommerce:addItem', {
  'id': '1392907062',
  'name': 'shop .001.item',
  'sku': 'ROBA018971',
  'category': 'HLAČE',
  'price': '410.00',
  'quantity': '1'
}); 

ga('ecommerce:send',{'hitCallback': function() {alert("ecommerce") ;}});

</script>

Does it matter that this code is placed after the page content and main 
analytics script is in header?

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Anybody have any luck?

@ivan, the main analytics.js should be in the head, so you should be good.

I have made sure to add the 'currency': 'USD', tried adding a callback function 
to indicate success...

After adding the analytics debug extension to Chrome, I see my values are all 
correct, but as @gaurav posted in #4, it's the actual addItems definition 
that's not working – and I've seen several posts complaining of the same with 
no resolution.

Just for all those who have not solved, make sure that Analytics Ecommerce is 
enabled in the account if you weren't the one who set it up. ugh!

Original comment by greg.b...@gmail.com on 21 Feb 2014 at 4:17

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Hi Greg, the Ecommerce is already enabled and the Transactions are working fine 
for me. Its only the AddItem function which is throwing me an error 

did you get it working ??

Original comment by gary.bha...@hjcnewmedia.com on 21 Feb 2014 at 4:46

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Hi @gaurav, I had the exact same reporting issues as you mentioned in #4 
(above) with the exception of my variables were populating correctly but 
Google's ec:id, ec:name, ec:sku, ec:category, ec:price, and ec:quantity were 
all <unknown>.

Since I hadn't setup the GA account, it never occurred to me that E-commerce 
was not 'ON', which obviously has something to do with addItems being 
instantiated.

My code will look a little different since I am using segment.io, but you can 
compare to see if there's something missing from your snippet:

$script .= <<<EOF
analytics.ready(function (){
 ga('require', 'ecommerce', 'ecommerce.js');
 ga('ecommerce:addTransaction', {
 'id': '{$transaction['id']}',
 'affiliation': '{$transaction['affiliation']}',
 'revenue': '{$transaction['revenue']}',
 'shipping': '{$transaction['shipping']}',
 'tax': '{$transaction['tax']}'
});
ga('ecommerce:addItem', {
 'id': '{$order_items['id']}',
 'name': '{$order_items['name']}',
 'sku': '{$order_items['sku']}',
 'category': '{$order_items['category']}',
 'price': '{$order_items['price']}',
 'quantity': '{$order_items['quantity']}'
});
ga('ecommerce:send');
});
EOF;

Still happening. Analytics stores the 'transactions'

product tracked). You can experience the error (with the analytics debugger 
plugin installed) 'Set called on unknown field: "items". ' and you can see your

waiting for google to implement a fix?

Original comment by btass...@sharptop.co on 14 Apr 2014 at 6:59

In my case, I figured out that's the issue is "associated" to your GA account. 
Contacted GA Support, after a few weeks of doing and undoing what they just 
did, the guy that apparently was in charge of this left Google. So we end-up 
reverting to old GA code.
