Merge WooCommerce and TikTok Shop Sales Data for Cost of Goods Sold Tracking
Calculating cost of goods sold across channels requires item-level data lined up the same way regardless of where it sold.
Why WooCommerce and TikTok Shop exports don't line up
- WooCommerce: an Order Date in whatever format your WordPress site's locale is set to; an Order Total that depends entirely on which tax/shipping plugins are installed; a plain numeric Order Number. Also, column layout depends on which export plugin generated the CSV, so two WooCommerce stores can produce different headers entirely.
- TikTok Shop: an order creation time stamped in UTC; order amount, platform commission, and affiliate commission split into separate columns; a long numeric Order ID. Also, refunded and partially-refunded orders stay in the export with a status column instead of being removed, so totals can overstate revenue if you don't filter by status.
For cost of goods sold tracking, that mismatch is exactly what causes hours of manual cleanup every period.
How to merge them in under a minute
- Open CSV Experts and set your target columns once (Date, Channel, Order ID, Total).
- Drop in your WooCommerce export and map its columns once.
- Drop in your TikTok Shop export and map it the same way — both merge into one sheet, normalized.
- Export as CSV or Excel. Same-layout files merge automatically next time.
FAQ
Does this upload my sales data anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser using JavaScript — your files are never sent to a server.
Does it work for more than two channels?
Yes. Add as many source files as you want; each distinct file layout is mapped once and remembered.
