Hi -
Glad you are able to usually use the benefits of A4T
To set-up Target-metrics, you will want to use the Rules in DTM.
Here's an example of setting up an mbox on a page to use as a Target-metric. Steps #1 - 6 will create an mbox on the page you are interested in. Steps #7-13 will use the mbox you just made in steps #1-6 as the Target-metric.
1. In DTM, open a Page Load Rule
2. Give it a name like "Target - Order Confirmation Page"
3. In the Conditions portion of the rule, put in the code that denotes the Order Confirmation page is loaded/is being shown (i.e. URL contains a specific value .... or the dataLayer contains specific values)
4. In the Adobe Target portion of the rule:
a. In the Create Mbox Around field, enter #orderConfirmPageMboxDiv
b. In the Mbox Name field, enter orderConfirmPage
c. In the Mbox Parameters, pass any values from the page to Target (this is optional)
5. In the JavaScript/Third Party Tags portion of the rule:
a. Go to the Sequential HTML tab and click Add a New Script
b. Give it a name like Target - Checkout - Order Confirmation div
c. Put in this code <div id="orderConfirmPageMboxDiv" style="display:none;visibility:hidden;"></div>
Note: whatever you used as the value in #4a above needs to be value of the id in the code
6. Leave a comment about what you did in the Add a Note section and hit Save
7. Now go to Target.
8. Get to the Goals & Setting part of your Test.
9. In the Reporting section, click Add a New Metric
10. In the first drop-down, select Conversion (because this example is about getting to the Order Conf. page)
11. In the second drop-down, select Viewed an mbox.
12. In the drop-down that appears, select orderConfirmPage (or whatever you used as the value in #4b above)
13. Finish creating your activity.
