TikTok Shop App Order Syncing Issue

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A Shopify merchant is experiencing order syncing problems between TikTok Shop (TTS) and Shopify when inventory becomes out of sync.

The Issue:

  • Orders placed on TikTok Shop when Shopify stock was set to 0 are not appearing in Shopify
  • The warehouse management system (WHMS) relies on Shopify to pick up new orders
  • According to TikTok documentation, these orders should have been auto-cancelled, but they remain marked as “To Ship” in TikTok Seller Center
  • Orders show “Shopify Sync Issues” in the TikTok Shop integration panel

Attempted Solutions:

  • Re-synced inventory counts
  • Updated product mapping
  • Neither action resolved the syncing issue

Current Status:

  • The original poster had to manually cancel the affected orders on TikTok’s side because shipping numbers couldn’t be attached
  • Another user is experiencing the same problem
  • No working solution has been found yet

Screenshots show the sync error messages and orders stuck in “To Ship” status.

I have my tiktok shop integrated with Shopify where my WHMS picks up new orders. Our Shopify stock count (out of sync with TTS). Orders were still placed on TTS but now the orders placed when the stock was set to 0 do not appear on Shopify. Is there a way to resync these orders?

According to their documentation this order should have been cancelled in TikTok Shop (https://seller-us.tiktok.com/university/essay?knowledge_id=3945538525972266&role=1&source_type=search&identity=1 :disappointed_face:

In Tik Tok Shop Seller Center these are still marked as “To Ship”:

From Shopify > Sales Channels > Tik Tok Shop > Shop Management > Orders > To Ship (Sync Issues = Shopify Sync Issues) I see this:

I have gone ahead and updated / re-synced the inventory count as well as the product mapping. Is there any way to salvage these orders?

@CADCO not yet unfortunately. We had to cancel those orders on Tik Tok’s side of things because we were unable to attach the shipping numbers.
