Update: Streamlined e-commerce tracking

We are now making it easier for more players to find and use the necessary variables in the tracking setup.
This update includes standardized changes to the data layer for actions such as product views, add to cart, view cart, start checkout, and complete purchase.

What does this mean for you?
- Customers with a marketing agreement: No action is required. The update is implemented automatically, and we ensure that everything works as it should.
- Other customers: It may be necessary to adjust existing tags in GTM to ensure that they track the correct data.

Previous variables may need to be changed to: eventModel.ecommerce and correct variable names. See complete overview at the bottom of this page.
