Functions everything I create is LOCAL

Hello NAV Experts,
I am breaking my head because every function I create is a local function.
For example: https://saurav-nav.blogspot.nl/2015/07/nav-2013-r2-multiple-sheets-in-excel.html
This person created two functions: OnlyCreateBook and OnlyOpenExcel()
Both of his triggers only show the function and do not say LOCAL.
When I create those functions in my report or in the excel buffer table in the CAL code trigger shows: LOCAL OnlyopenExcel()
Why does mine always show local ?
How do I create a function that does not say local?
Thank you !

since nav 2015 new functions are set as local by default.
to change them to global show global variables, select your function, view properties window, set property local to no.best regards

The reason this change was made was to encourage encapsulation - I.e. You only expose those functions which are meant to be called from external objects1
