How do I track the performance of my discount campaigns?

As an e-commerce manager, I'm struggling to understand how to effectively measure the success of my discount campaigns. I want to go beyond simple revenue numbers and gain deeper insights into how these promotions impact my overall business performance. I need a comprehensive approach to tracking metrics that will help me optimize future campaigns, understand customer behavior, and ensure that my discounting strategy is actually driving profitable growth rather than just reducing margins.
