Hi all, I've noticed that ad hoc reports that include the field "ConversionTypeName" exhibit a peculiar behavior regarding conversion rate. If I include "ConversionTypeName" in the fields to retrieve for an account performance report, the results are segmented by conversion type name, as expected, and the available metrics are split into the different lines while the "Totals" line shows the aggregated values for the whole data set, which corresponds exactly to the values shown in the web interface. So far everything is OK.
When I include "ConversionRate" in the report, however, the field is always returned as "0.00%" for every conversion type. I guess you could argue that you cannot meaningfully calculate a conversion rate for a specific conversion type for the same reason that you generally cannot include non-conversion stats in a report as soon as you segment it that way. But then, why even include the field if it is always zero? The more confusing issue is regarding the "Totals" line. Here I have encountered two different cases: in one account, the "ConversionRate" field for totals is also zero, like for the individual conversion types. In another account, however, the totals line shows the correct conversion rate for all conversions of the account (while all other lines still show zero). I can't seem to find what causes this dissimilarity. Any pointers are much appreciated!
