Improving the efficiency of the enterprise involves the optimization of all business processes related to the production of finished products from orders for raw materials to direct output. The article analyzes the work of the manufacturing enterprise warehouse and highlights its main functions. The functions of a warehouse can be represented in the business process diagram of a warehouse organization. The work of the warehouse is divided into the receiving of material values, the loading of finished products and internal warehouse processes. In addition, a list of the main problems arising in the management of warehouse facilities was formulated, the reasons for which are the great influence of the human factor on the activities of this business process. It is people who are responsible for the correct design and accounting of material values, their movement and control. Therefore, the implementing of an automated warehouse management system (WMS-system) can solve these problems in part or full. In addition, the work highlights the components of the effectiveness of the WMS-system for the activities of the warehouse as one of the elements of the business process at the enterprise. These components include: revenue stream, customer relationships, key activities, key resources, key partners, values and cost structure. It is possible to improve the warehouse results, hence the whole enterprise results, by increasing the efficiency of storage, improving the accuracy and speed of tasks, optimizing the number of employees, and the availability of modern equipment that will quickly and efficiently perform warehousing operations.
Key words: business processes, warehousing, material values, WMS-system, automation, enterprise efficiency.
