# Active Lifecycle

**Active Lifecycle** in **Asset Tracking** is an important feature that provides a snapshot of the chain of custody details of each device at every stage starting from the Verifone store to the deployment center. There are two ways to view the chain of custody details.

**Method 1: To view the workflow and chain of custody of the device.**

Go to **Device Management** > **Devices** > **View Devices**.
