Creating Manual Adjustments

Overview

Manual adjustments let you add income or expenses that are not automatically tracked by TikTok. This includes things like software subscriptions, staff costs, packaging materials, taxes, or any other business expense or additional revenue that affects your real profit.

By adding manual adjustments, your Profit & Loss (P&L) and Sales & Profit pages reflect a more complete and accurate picture of your business.

Types of Adjustments

Income vs. Expense

Every adjustment is either:

• Income -- Additional revenue not captured by TikTok (e.g., one-time affiliate payouts, insurance reimbursements).
• Expense -- Costs you pay that TikTok does not track (e.g., software tools, shipping supplies, staff wages).

Past vs. Future

• Past adjustments have a date in the past. They appear immediately on the P&L for that date.
• Future adjustments have a date in the future. They will show up on the P&L once that date arrives. This is useful for scheduling known upcoming costs.

One-Time vs. Recurring

• One-Time -- Applied on a single date.
• Daily -- Repeats every day from the start date to the end date.
• Weekly -- Repeats every week.
• Monthly -- Repeats on the same day each month.
• Yearly -- Repeats once a year.

Recurring adjustments automatically generate entries for each period within the date range you set.
