No custom functions option in FileMaker 18


I have just started with FileMaker Pro and have been following some fundamental tutorials. I would like to start using Custom Functions in FileMaker. However, I cannot see the Custom Function menu option. I am using a trial version of FileMaker Pro Advanced 18 and cannot find a Custom Function option anywhere in the menus.

I've tried it with different installations on PC and Mac but have the same problem. I'd be very grateful for any FM experts who might be able to tell me what the problem is here.

An example of the custom function option I have been trying to access can be found in this tutorial.

All help appreciated.
