Is this referring to QlikView or Sense? I would like to move it into the correct product forum.

I suspect the first piece you may have been trying to find is here:

Here is an Article with some further reference points too:

I believe there is a piece that needs to be changed in Distribution Service config to allow the function to be called as well, but I cannot find that at the moment, so if you need that, let me know, and I can try to track it down and respond with that info later, hopefully this may help get you on track.

Not sure what do you mean by a function but if what you are trying is create and execute a subroutine you can use the Call statement.

Take a look at: https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense/February2019/Subsystems/Hub/Content/Sense_Hub/Scripting/ScriptControlStatements/Call.htm
