Trouble understanding Purchaser segment

[joel_taylor]

I've created a segment that check for the existence of an order on a hit like so:

When I use this segment along with my URL pathing report I'll see something like:

Enter site

 -> example.com/some_url

Exit Site

I don't really understand why this would appear. I have checkout and purchase/order events plugged in so I would expect the URL pathing report to have those links. For example, I figured all the reports would include all the various paths surrounding a purchase event.

Enter site

-> example.com/products

-> example.com/checkout (checkout event)

-> example.com/order/confirmation (purchase event )

Exit site

Any thoughts as to why that first example is showing up?

Hi Joel,

Looks like it is only showing you the pathing for that purchase hit. Try changing the segment to visit scope instead of hit scope.
