Locking a completed budget lets you prevent accidental modification or deletion. Once a budget is locked, you will no longer be able to perform any update to its entries and properties. You can unlock the budget, if it needs to be changed.
You can assign a permission to the budget to define who has access to lock or unlock the budget. For more information see Budget Permissions.
