Anyone have any suggestions on workflows for using Fanficfare and Kobo?

I use Fanficfare to download fics from AO3. Then, I transfer them to my Kobo Libra 2 using the built in Calibre Send to Device button. I have Kobo Touch Extended Driver so it sends the fic as a kepub to my Kobo. I also have Kobo Utilities and do use the Custom Columns for current reading location column, percent read column, rating column, and last read column.

However, when the fic gets updated by the author, I use Fanficfare to overwrite my original Calibre epub. But when I send it to Kobo using the Send to Device button, the kepub in the Kobo doesn't get replaced or updated.

Is there any better way to do this? Especially when I'm not 100% finished with the fanfic kepub in my Kobo, and would prefer to have something store my current location and then update it in the Kobo when the fic gets updated and sent to the Kobo again. The problem with Kobo Utilities "percent read column" for this is that the percentage read column will obviously be wrong when the fanfic gets updated and then downloaded by Fanficfare.

Thanks in advance!
