A power of attorney is a document that gives a person or entity the right to act on behalf of another person or entity. The scope of the power can be general or limited. If general, the party to whom it is given is empowered to do everything that the grantor if the power(s) could do. If limited, the range of powers is limited to a more circumscribed sphere of acts.

Assuming here that the bank is the recipient of a properly executed power of attorney, until it is revoked, the bank has to honor it. It may be the case, though, that the rules and regulations by which the bank operates precludes one from dealing for another pursuant to a power of attorney. If so, and if that rule existed when the account was opened, the depositor would ordinarily be bound by it.

Can you do direct deposit if your name is not on the account?

No, you cannot have direct deposits into an account that you are not listed on. However, many account holders can add Power of Attorneys (POA) on their bank accounts, which is basically an authorized user. This person would have the same rights as the account holder, but the account holder is liable for the account. So if the account holder were willing to add you onto the account as a Power of Attorney, then you would have the ability to have direct deposits into the account, as well as full access to the account. The account holder has to go to the bank in-person to do this and must provide identification and sign off on this.
