Finalizing the purchase order requires all lines to be either canceled or invoiced. After a purchase order has been finalized, you can no longer change the purchase order. Finalize the purchase order to liquidate budget reservations and any encumbrance that is not yet relieved in general ledger.

As the “Finalize” word complete or conclude . In AX Purchase Orders it means no more versions and changes allowed now.
