What if I notice functionality in OP software seems to be down but I have not received a text alert?
If you believe functionality is down in OP software, please contact Support.
You may be the first Practice noticing a problem, or we may be in the process of exploring how widespread an issue is. Let us know so that the OP team can respond appropriately.
