# Start up enterprise assets after maintenance activities using the Mobile Agent application

Move assets of a startup work order task to the In use state in the Mobile Agent application to indicate that the assets are available for use after maintenance.

## Before you begin

The startup work order task must be in the Work in progress state before you can start up assets.

## Procedure

1.  From your mobile device, launch the Mobile Agent application.

2.  On the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen, tap the **My Tasks** tab.

6.  On the **Details** tab, tap **Start Work**.
