You cannot update the data that you already sent to Google Analytics.

If you send another transaction (event with the same transaction ID), Google will consider it as a new transaction and so the revenues will add up.

Though, it looks like there is a possibility to reverse a transaction. So you may be able to update the amount in two steps.

  • Reverse the original transaction
  • Send the correct transaction

The original transaction will still appear, but you will also see the reversed operation and your new transaction.

In your example : 100 - 100 + 150 = 150 (original + reversed + new = new)
