Hi Karthik,

We use the options for the below reasons:

Allow Final Matching : Enable this option to allow final matching of purchase order matched invoices. You can indicate a final match when you match an invoice to a purchase order during invoice entry or when you adjust a matched invoice distribution. You cannot final match when you match invoices to receipts.
Note: If you final match to a purchase order, any subsequent invoices matched to the purchase order will be placed on hold, and you cannot manually release the hold.

Allow Distribution Level : Enable this option if you want to allow matching to purchase order distributions. If you enable this option, you can match an invoice to one or more purchase order distributions. If you do not enable this option, Payables only allows you to match an invoice to a purchase order shipment.

Allow Matching Account Override: Enable this option if you want to allow override of the account for an invoice distribution created from matching to a purchase order. You can override the account for a matched invoice distribution in the Distributions window of the Invoice Workbench, or on any imported invoices. You cannot override the account for a matched invoice distribution if you use encumbrance accounting, or perpetual receipt accrual. In addition, you cannot override the account if the purchase order is projects related and the item destination for the purchase order distribution is Inventory.

Lastly Transfer PO Descriptive FlexField Information :Enable this option if you want Payables to automatically transfer the descriptive flexfield information from the purchase order distribution to the invoice distribution when you match an invoice to a purchase order. If you enable this option, make sure that the flexfield structure is the same for purchase order distributions and invoice distributions.

Hope this helps....
