Manage your requests

Create a Help Center account

For the best Help Center experience, sign up for an account if you have not created one already.

To sign up:

1. Go to Sign in at the top right corner of this website.

2. On the pop-up window, select Sign up at the bottom.

3. Enter an email address and password of your choice.

  • Use the same email address that you use to sign up for electronic prescribing of controlled substances (EPCS) so that Support agents may verify your identity.
  • Use the same email address that you provided your DrFirst Account Manager, if applicable.

4. You will receive an email asking you to verify your email and select a password. Once you have selected a password, your account is activated and you may log in.

5. Use your selected email address and password to Sign in for the first time.

This account will allow you to view your Support requests as well as the Support requests submitted by colleagues at your organization.

View Support requests ("Requests")

View all your Support requests any time by signing into your Help Center account.

3. Under Requests, select the ticket you want to add a comment to, even if it is marked as Solved.

4. Submit a comment. This changes the status to Open and prompts Support to follow up with you about your request.

Once an agent replies to you, you will see the status change from Open to:

  • Awaiting your reply, if a response from you is necessary. While the request is in Awaiting your reply status, the agent will attempt to contact you 3 times before marking the ticket as Solved.
  • Solved, if the agent has completed your request. Requests marked Solved will automatically move to Closed after about 5 business days. Once closed, you may still revisit the content of the closed request.
Reopen a closed request

Even though a request has been Closed, you may still create a linked follow-up request for Support.

1. Sign in at the top right corner of this website.

2. Underneath your name, select Requests.

  • Awaiting your reply, if a response from you is necessary. While the request is in Awaiting your reply status, the agent will attempt to contact you 3 times before marking the ticket as Solved.
  • Solved, if the agent has completed your request. Requests marked Solved will automatically move to Closed after about 5 business days. Once closed, you may still revisit the content of the closed request.
