Why Connect Deputy to Remote?

Deputy uses a REST + Webhook API while Remote uses REST, requiring careful middleware to translate data formats between the two platforms

Employee records must be updated separately in Deputy and Remote, causing payroll discrepancies when changes are missed

Deputy limitations compound the integration challenge: integration with accounting platforms like Xero and MYOB works well, but real-time sync can occasionally lag behind by several hours

New team members take longer to onboard because they must learn manual workarounds to keep Deputy and Remote aligned

Reporting across Deputy and Remote requires painful manual exports and spreadsheet merges

No single source of truth when employees live in two disconnected tools, so staff second-guess which system has the correct information

How We Help

Australian mid-market businesses lose hours every week copying employees and shifts between Deputy and Remote. Clever Ops builds a custom integration that automates this entire workflow, so your team can redirect that time to higher-value tasks. On the technical side, Deputy uses a REST + Webhook API with OAuth authentication, and Remote authenticates via OAuth, which our team handles as part of the build.

When a record updates in Deputy, every team member working in Remote sees the change instantly. No lag, no stale dashboards, no conflicting reports.
