When passing the FAF if aircraft is not at the final approach fix altitude then FINALAPP will not engage. If the A/C is below FAF altitude FINALAPP will engage but not FAF but at the interception point of the approach path. That is why your company may be not wanting you to engage FINALAPPR before reaching the FAF altitude.
