Integration services
This integration provides two services you can activate. Click on Activate for the service you wish to activate.
New User > Add Team member
This will sync new user data between your services. In this instance, when a new user is added to Lightspeed, it will sync and add the team member into Deputy.
Note: that when you first connect Lightspeed to Deputy and activate the Add Team member service it will pull all employees from your Lightspeed account into Deputy.
Click Save to activate this service for the selected location or toggle ON for all locations.
New Sale > Create Sale
When a sale is entered into your POS system, it will automatically be fed into Deputy. This will, in turn, populate the sales data, including the figures in the sales report and the Stats graph, allowing you to schedule your employees in line with the employee cost vs sales figures.
Select the Lightspeed outlet name you wish to match with the Deputy area for sales to be uploaded then click Save.
