order that has been sent for filling internally
Explanation:
To me "released" sounds like the customer made the order, paid for it, and it was released into (sent to) internal departments for manufacturing or packing. I think that's the general idea.

For example, where I used to work, the Production Control dept. received orders via EDI, then "released" them to the floor (plant floor) for manufacturing.

agree  Tony M: That's the way I would interpret 'released', just like an invoice that its 'released' [approved] for payment...

Order to release from stock


Explanation:
It is an internal procedure for executing clients' orders. Once the department which processes customer orders is satisfied that everything is ok, they will send an order to the store to release the goods for despatch. This will contain all important information such as Item, Quantity, where it should be sent to, how it should be sent to etc..etc..
