It should. Try to inspect how the function is created, whether the
function object exists, if the workspace is loaded as expected, etc.

Absolutely. This is what the R gods recommend for reproducibility:

At the same time it can be a pain until you get the hang of it. Right
now I use a mix where I prepare the data and save it in the workspace,
load workspace, and run needed code from there. It's not reproducible
as purists will have it, but it's aeons better than copy/paste...
