What is the typical lag time to see results in the Ecommerce section within Google Analytics? It seems like a day.

It's usually 24 hours after you add your tracking code.

I had the tracking code in there. Unable to see the Ecommerce with the legacy code. Wondering if I should use the latest Google code.

Did you put the code in the file footer.asp and load up the extra google files from early impact as instructed?

Already did the above. In regards to the tracking with the latest code, I think this was resolved last April (from what I read on the Google boards).

The only was is to test, which I am doing now.

There was a delay (about a day or more) to get our ecommerce tracking code and goals functioning with google but .... we also had to change the goal value in Google Analytics to

"Head Match" when asked to assign Match Type.

Also, we threw our tracking code in the V3.5 ordercompletetracking.asp page, along with our external affiliate tracking code. But it all works now, using the latest Google code ( this earlier noted problem was resolved via Google as the earlier poster commented)
