Why Connect Deputy to Rippling?

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 Rippling aligned

Online orders in Deputy and in-store inventory in Rippling are never in sync, frustrating customers

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

Guest booking data in Deputy and operations scheduling in Rippling require manual coordination

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