P&L: your full TikTok Shop profit and loss statement
Last updated:
Applies to: All TikTok Shop stores connected to KixMon · All plans
AI Summary
The P&L tab is a complete profit-and-loss statement for your TikTok Shop store. Every parent row expands to show the individual TikTok fee or cost behind it, so you can reconcile KixMon against your TikTok settlement statements. Date ranges run from Today to Last 12 months or a custom range, and columns can be grouped by day, by week or by month with a Total column. The statement exports to Excel with a column for each period and a Total column. Net Profit is Gross Sales minus promos, advertising, shipping, refunds, TikTok fees, affiliate commission, non-order adjustments, cost of goods and expenses. Platform-funded discounts are not treated as a seller cost, because TikTok reimburses them at settlement.

Export
Click Export at the top right. The Excel file has one sheet, Profit Loss Data, with a column for each period and a Total column. It includes the main rows of the statement plus the sub-items for Advertising cost (Total Spend, Ads Credit), Shipping cost (Seller Shipping, TikTok Shipping, FBT) and GMV (Product Sales, Customer Shipping Fee, Seller Discount, Platform Discount). Values are plain numbers, with costs as negative amounts, so you can use them in your own formulas.

Non Order Adjustments
Settlement adjustments not linked to a specific order, such as reimbursements, chargebacks and Fulfilled by TikTok (FBT) warehouse service fees. Click the underlined amount to open the Non Order Adjustments window. It lists each adjustment for that period with its Transaction ID, Statement ID, Type and Adjustment Amount, so you can match every line to your TikTok settlement statement.
KixMon uses the sign TikTok reports: credits to you appear as positive amounts, and deductions as negative amounts. Common adjustment types include:
| Type | What it means |
|---|---|
LOGISTICS_REIMBURSEMENT |
Reimbursement TikTok pays you for an order refunded because of a logistics issue, for example an order lost or damaged in transit |
CHARGE_BACK |
An amount adjusted when a buyer disputes a payment with their bank or card issuer |
GMV_DEDUCTION_FOR_FBT_WAREHOUSE_SERVICE_FEE |
Fulfilled by TikTok (FBT) warehouse service fees settled against your account |
Cost of Goods
Units sold × the COGS set for each product on the Product page.
Gross Profit
Gross Profit = Gross Sales − Promos − Advertising cost − Shipping cost − Refund Cost − TikTok Fees − Affiliate Commission − Non Order Adjustments − Cost of Goods
Expenses
Manual expenses recorded on the Expense page: creator retainers, software, staff, samples bought outside TikTok.
Net Profit
Net Profit = Gross Profit − Expenses
This is what your TikTok Shop actually earned in the period.
Frequently asked questions
Why doesn’t KixMon treat Platform Discount as a cost?
Because TikTok funds it and reimburses you at settlement. Counting it as a cost would understate your profit.
Can I see profit per day instead of per week?
Yes. Choose By day, By week or By month at the top right of the P&L.
How far back can I look?
The P&L can show up to Last 12 months, or any custom range within your available history. How far back you can go depends on your plan: Pro covers up to 3 months of history and Max up to 12 months. When you first connect your store, KixMon imports your most recent 2 months so your figures are complete and accurate from day one. If you need more history, contact support and we can import additional months within your plan’s limit.
Does the export include the expanded sub-items?
The export includes the sub-items for Advertising cost, Shipping cost and GMV. Refund Cost, TikTok Fees, Affiliate Commission and Non Order Adjustments are exported as totals; expand those rows in the P&L to see each line.
Why doesn’t my P&L match my TikTok settlement exactly?
Unsettled orders are estimated until TikTok reports the final fees. Expand each row and compare sub-items against your settlement statement; the gap is usually in shipping or a fee TikTok has not yet posted.
Where do my own costs like software and salaries appear?
Under Expenses, which you record on the Expense page. They are subtracted from Gross Profit to give Net Profit.
