Can I run a job with custom functions being defined within the script?

RStudio IDE
1

I wanted to try the Jobs feature in the IDE with running a fairly time-consuming script. I have some custom functions being defined within the script, and of course being applied later on. The code works fine when I run the script manually.

However, when I run it with the Jobs feature, I get an error stating that the first custom function is not found. I am not running the job as a copy of a global environment.

I assume the answer to my question is yes, but I'm unsure as to why it's not recognizing it.

Where those functions are defined? They should be loaded into environment when you run it, of course.

Can you maybe create a small script illustrating the issue?
