You need to create your own methods for executing these function modules.

Depending on how the FM's is defined you have the option to get the method created automatically.

You need to find your delegated business object, place the cursor on methods, and push create, if possible it will generate the source code for you, otherwise you need to do it manually - see example.

When you created the method, create a task with this method and implement it in your workflow.
