## Workflow for sending ecommerce events to Adobe Analytics

1. The channel, campaign, state, and zip window properties are updated.
2. RudderStack sets the timestamp according to the [dashboard settings]({{< ref "destinations/streaming-destinations/adobe-analytics/setting-up-adobe-analytics-in-rudderstack.md#connection-settings" >}}).
3. The `currencyCode` window property is set.
4. The Event string \(if mapped on the dashboard\) is set.
5. The Product string \(if mapped on the dashboard\) is set.
6. `contextData`, `eVars`, `lists`, `hiers`, and `props` are set.
7. `linkTrackVars` is set.
8. The mapped Adobe event is set.
9. Finally, `tl()` is called. The `tl()` method is a core component of Adobe Analytics. It takes all analytics variables defined in the page, compiles them into an image request, and sends that data to the Adobe data collection servers. It works similarly to the `t()` method, except this method does not increment page views.

The `tl()` method is useful for tracking links and other elements that would not otherwise be considered in a full page load.
