PayPal → OFX for Tradespeople (Plumbers, Electricians)
As tradesperson, you need PayPal bank statements in OFX format. PayPal statements include a mix of payments, refunds, fees, and currency conversions. BankScan AI separates transaction types and preserves fee details. BankScan AI handles the conversion — DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS, multi-row layout where each transaction shows Gross, Fee, and Net amounts on separate lines with running balance, and all.
