Need much more information on what you are trying to do.

You can call other functions from main using the functionName with appropriate parameters. E.g. functionName(params).

Parallel routines are actually external to DataStage, so there are no special "DataStage" requirements. You refer to other functions from within your code exactly as you would if DataStage were not in the mix.
