You need to configure your PayPal account to redirect back the customers automatically to your website. Otherwise, only the ones who click on the "go back" button after the payment would be accounted for.

However , we would be happy for the ecommerce transaction tracking to instead track orders created rather than sales (which would then capture everything and would not require) I am thinking maybe we could move the ecommerce tracking transaction function to the onafterordercreate function - might that work?> Can you help me find what the trigger is for the analytics ecommerce pushing data? and maybe suggest where we would move it to.

Else you can to put the tracking in the "end" view instead of "after_end" in order to track all the orders even if it's not confirmed orders.
