Call another Function in Functio App

Question

Hi,
I would want to create Function app that has several Functions in it, one main Function and then several side Functions that can be called from main function. This way I can keep my code separated and clean and if needed I can even call side Functions without executing main function

As example

1. Main function that collects every server from Subscription
2. Side function turn off the servers
3. Side Function that start servers
4. write all data to Azure storage

I have not found docs or blogs (Microsoft or 3rd party blogs) how I can call side Functions in same Funktion app using PowerShell. Would somebody have reference to this subject?
