Grammatical function (LFG)
In Lexical-Functional Grammar (Bresnan (ed.) 1982), the term grammatical function is used for grammatical relations.
Comments
Perhaps a slight difference between grammatical function and grammatical relation is that the former refers to one of the members of a relation, while the latter refers to a link between two elements.
