The key difference is how much detail you\u2019d like to see in your accounting and how you prefer to reconcile payouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This guide will help you understand how each option works, what you\u2019ll see in your accounting, and how to choose the best fit for your workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"two-sync-styles-explained-668a40a3-5c23-4eae-85d0-df1ac5bb81a5\"><strong>Two sync styles explained<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"standard-tiktok-sync-detailed-view-ea558a13-9f01-4864-b41e-bfce5c043d36\"><strong>Standard TikTok sync (detailed view)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This option captures your activity the way it occurs within TikTok itself. It brings in your orders, refunds, fees, and payouts on an individual transaction level. If you\u2019d like to see product-level detail in your books and prefer maximum transparency over your fees and tax info, this is the right fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What this gives you:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Visibility into individual orders and products<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Detailed reporting in accounting software<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Full tracking of individual TikTok fees and reimbursements<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This option works best for businesses that want full transparency and don\u2019t mind higher transaction volume in their accounting system, along with an intricate reconciliation process, since each statement deposit from TikTok may contain multiple orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tiktok-statement-sync-simplified-view-b7ab22e0-9c16-4e45-8525-78e12ab0c26f\"><strong>TikTok statement sync (simplified view)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This option focuses on clean, easy reconciliation rather than detailed order history. Instead of syncing every order, Synder groups information based on TikTok statements.
