# Deputy

## Streamline Staff Scheduling with the Xola + Deputy Integration

**Deputy** is a powerful **workforce management platform** designed to **simplify and streamline** your team’s day-to-day operations. Whether you’re **creating guide schedules**, **swapping shifts**, **assigning tasks**, or **keeping staff informed**, Deputy makes it all easy, intuitive, and efficient.

When connected with **Xola**, this **integration** takes your operations to the next level by **automatically syncing real-time reservations** from Xola directly into your **Deputy dashboard**. This gives you a **centralized view** of both your **staffing needs** and **guest demand**, allowing you to make **smarter, data-driven scheduling decisions**. With up-to-date information at your fingertips, you can **optimize shift coverage**, **reduce overstaffing**, and ensure your team is always **prepared and in position** to deliver exceptional guest experiences.

**User Access:** **Administrator** roles have access to set up Deputy in Xola.

- [How it Works](https://support.xola.com/deputy#how-it-works)
- [Tips for Success](https://support.xola.com/deputy#tips)

---

### How to Get Started

- **Ensure You Have a Deputy Account** 
    - If you don't have a Deputy account, you can sign up at [www.deputy.com](https://www.deputy.com/).
- **Connect Deputy in Xola** 
    - In your Xola account: 
          - Go to the **[App Store Tab](https://seller.xola.app/apps/)**, find **Deputy**, and click **Install**.
          - Authorize the Integration by clicking on **Authorize**.
          - In the separate window, enter your Deputy primary username and password to authorize the connection.

---

### How it Works

Once integrated, all new reservations made in Xola will appear within your Deputy account as Open/Empty Shifts. From there, you can:

- Assign guides to these open shifts.
- Allow guides to assign themselves to shifts.
- Manage schedules, swap shifts, and assign tasks directly from the Deputy dashboard. 

This integration ensures that your scheduling reflects real-time events, streamlining operations and enhancing staff coordination.

### Tips for Success

- **Train Your Team**: Ensure that your staff is familiar with both Xola and Deputy platforms to maximize the benefits of the integration.
- **Monitor Schedules Regularly**: Regularly check the Deputy dashboard to manage and adjust schedules as needed, ensuring optimal staff allocation.
- **Use Notifications Wisely**: Leverage Deputy’s notification settings to automatically alert guides about new shifts or schedule changes as soon as they're assigned.
- **Set Up Shift Templates**: Use templates in Deputy for recurring shift types (e.g., tour start times, cleaning breaks) to speed up scheduling and reduce errors.
- **Leverage Auto-Scheduling**: Take advantage of Deputy’s auto-scheduling feature to quickly fill open shifts based on staff availability, qualifications, or preferences.
- **Encourage Self-Assignment**: Empower guides to self-assign shifts through Deputy, giving them more control over their schedule and reducing manual workload for managers.
