What do you not understand from the relevant manuals?
The problem I have is that people can explain things quickly but I can only comprehend slowly.

This option indicates the procedure is dynamically fetched if necessary before invoking it. The FETCHABLE attribute is not valid on INTERNAL procedures. FETCHABLE procedures should not be linked into a load module that contains a MAIN procedure.

this is the note i got from manual but still want to know is it only for dynamic procedure module and not for static one how actually it works that i want to know.

Research 'static' and 'dynamic' with regards to loading executable modules.
