Hi @fern1 ,
I think right place to ask this question is AEP's, data collection sub community : https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-experience-platform-data/ct-p/adobe-launch-co...
But here is my take - At first glance present state setup looks fine to me as "%report suit%" is a data element [i.e. variable] which is actually resolving to a report suit value when referenced in analytics extension. If you could inspect and spot "report suit" data element, it should help you to understand how is that resolving correct report suit name while sending tracking data to analytics.
What is best practice ? - Dont hardcode, create data element and reasons are below
1. If its required to change report suit name all you would need to modify your data element instead making change at 3 places which is more error prone.
2. If you have multiple report suits to deal with , would you prefer to create multiple tag properties ? You may have logic instead that decides dynamically to which report suit data to be sent.[just an example]
3. In your case it looks like by looking at page URL/instance it must be deciding to which report suit data to be sent i.e. dev/stage/prod..
4. etc
How to upload image while posting question/reply ? 2 ways..
1. Just refer to screenshot, all you need to select camera icon and upload your image. like I did just
2. Copy image and paste into editor directly.

Hi @AtulChavan! thank you for your reply.
I´ll be checking that..
just to jump in the 3rd point... That interface wasn't available to me before. I've attached imgs in other questions but for some reason, my interface was different today.
anyway, I´ll be checking your points and inspecting how the setup was done before.
thanks!
once again thank you @AtulChavan
I just checked and the setup was as you suggested..
it was created a data element for each environment (prod, dev, and staging) and the report suites were hard-coded by the URL to match them.
if (hostname == 'yyyyqua') { return 'xxx.yyyyy.qua'; } else if (site == 'bbbbb') { return 'xxx.bbbbb.qua';
I´m still trying to understand how each data element is referring to specific report suites since apart from the data element´s name, there is nothing that I can see connecting them but it is making some more sense for me now.
But thank you for the info. Now I've at least a direction to search some more.
