This man has outstanding qualities: he is brave, intelligent and resourceful.
(i.e. he stands above the crowd).
I regret to inform you that despite having sent you several invoices, there is still a large sum outstanding.
(i.e. you haven't been paying your debts and there is a big amount still to pay.)

If I'm not wrong, outstanding is an adjective, so, you may use the word to qualify a noun. For example, when you talk about "an athlete who had an outstanding performance". The word "performance" is a noun, and "outstanding" is the adjective that qualifies the noun.
Hope I've helped on something!
