Paypal gross payments

Ive noticed that quickfile only puts in paypal total payment and this give wrong balance as the fee are still to be deducted eg:
Total amount:
£65.57 GBP
Fee amount:
-£2.43 GBP
Net amount:
£63.14 GBP
Do you have to put in the fees manual or am i doing it wrong??

You shouldn’t connect the feed directly to your current account. The fees should be downloaded gross but into a dedicated bank account (of type merchant account). The gross amounts are then imported here and any withdrawals to your bank account are treated as a bank transfer. If you’re using the automated feed then any charges levied by PayPal will be automatically applied.

Also I think the following guide may be helpful:
