What reports help me understand discount campaign effectiveness?

As an e-commerce manager, I'm struggling to measure the true impact of my discount campaigns. I know I'm running promotions, but I can't definitively tell which ones are driving real revenue, attracting quality customers, or providing a positive return on investment. I need comprehensive reporting that goes beyond basic metrics and helps me understand the nuanced performance of my discount strategies across different customer segments, products, and channels. What specific reports and analytics should I be tracking to gain meaningful insights into my promotional efforts?
