Diff. BW FM N Subroutine

Function modules are global and can be called from anywhere, while subroutines are local to the program they are defined in. Function modules can be tested, remote enabled, handle exceptions, and return values on their own. They must be maintained in function groups. Subroutines cannot be tested or remote enabled independently, only a few can handle exceptions, they do not need to be in function groups, and do not return values.
