私下走单


Explanation:
该是私下走单吧。因为阿里巴巴论坛上有人如此讨论:
外贸业务员私下走单。。。。做老板的当然不允许业务员接外单的 了,这个可以想互理解一下

“外单”基本义应该是出口, 但用在这个例子可能是带有贬义的引申义

sale of surplus merchandise


Explanation:
Another possible interpretation refers to surplus merchandise that may result when a store purchases too much inventory. Promoters are not allowed to sell excess/leftover merchandise on the side (出外单).

Explanation: 订单货尾。这是严格意义上的“外单”了,是公司的订单多余出来的货品,一般这些货尾都不会很多,因为公司的数量是规定的,厂家也不会浪费自己的材料去多做很多。这些货尾的质量一般是过关的
