在实际的生产过程中，领料的方式可以分成计划内领料和计划外领料。 计划内领料，是指按照生产订单中组件清单所产生的预留进行发料。 计划外发料，当生产过程中发生如原材料报废等临时状况，导致无法按照订单中的组件预留进行发料，额外做的发料动作。 下面简单演示下两者在系统中的操作，我们演示使用 app “过账货物移动” （MIGO）进行操作： 计划内发料： 选择“发料” “订单” ，输入“生产订单号” 因为是计划内发料，所以系统会根据预留中的记录自动带出 物料号,数量，工厂，库存地点和订单号等信息。   计划外发料： 选择 “发货” “其他” ， 移动类型选择“261” 因为是计划外发料，系统没有组件 预留中的相关信息，所以需要手工输入物料号，数量，工厂，库存地点和 生产订单号。 查看相关物料凭证： 在 app “显示生产订单” 中的，菜单 -> 转到 -> 记入账单的货物移动，可以查看上面的两个发料动作的物料凭证。其中，有一个 货物移动标识，“1” 代表 计划内发料，“2” 代表 计划外发料。   总结： 计划外发料和计划内发料，都会消耗掉相应的库存，所以从货物移动角度，两者没有实质上的区别，只是应对不同业务场景的两种发料方式。
