What each tool sees on its ownShow less
TikTok Ads on its own
TikTok sees views, clicks and the conversions its pixel catches. It cannot see what happens after a visitor leaves the tracked site.
Timing. TikTok reports conversions under the attribution windows chosen in the ad account, and those counts can include view-through conversions.
Access. The TikTok Marketing API with read access to the ad account.
QuickBooks on its own
QuickBooks sees what was billed and paid. It has no idea which marketing produced the customer.
Timing. QuickBooks shows revenue when invoices and sales receipts are entered, which can trail the sale in a busy month.
Access. The QuickBooks Online Accounting API with read-only OAuth access.
