Business value

By using access modifiers, you have control over where it can be called from, be it your own code or third-party code building on top of your code.

Feature details

You can control access and encapsulation of your code by adding local/private, protected, internal, or public access modifiers to AL language elements. This is similar to the way C# uses access modifiers.
