As with all development environments there will be need to move your code from one schema to another or from one database to another.
With Oracle Data Miner 11gR2, we have the same requirement. In our case it is not just individual procedures or packages, we have a workflow consisting of a number of nodes. With each node we may have a number of steps or functions that are applied to the data.
Exporting an ODM (11gR2) Workflow
In the Data Miner navigator, right-click the name of the workflow that you want to export.
The Save dialog opens. Specify a location on you computer where the workflow is saved as an XML file.
The default name for the file is workflow_name.xml, where workflow_name is the name of the workflow. You can change the name and location of the file.
Importing an ODM (11gR2) Workflow
Before you import your ODM workflow, you need to make sure that you have access the the same data that is specified in the workflow.
All tables/views are prefixed with the schema where the table/view resides.
You may want to import the data into the new schema or ensure that the new schema has the necessary grants.
Open the connection in ODM.
Select the project under with you want to import the workflow, or create a new project.
Right click the Project and select Import Workflow.
Search for the XML export file of the workflow.
Preserve the objects during the import.
When you have all the data and the ODM workflow imported, you will need to run the entire workflow to ensure that you have everything setup correctly.
It will also create the models in the new schema.
Data encoding in Workflow
All of the tables and views used as data sources in the exported workflow must reside in the new account
The account from which the workflow was exported is encoded in the exported workflow e.g. the exported workflow was exported from the account DMUSER and contains the data source node with data MINING_DATA_BUILD. If you import the schema into a different account (that is, an account that is not DMUSER) and try to run the workflow, the data source node fails because the workflow is looking for USER.MINING_DATA_BUILD_V.
To solve this problem, right-click the data node (MINING_DATA_BUILD_V in this example) and select Define Data Wizard. A message appears indicating that DMUSER.MINING_DATA_BUILD_V does not exist in the available tables/views. Click OK and then select MINING_DATA_BUILD_V in the current account.

I have created a video of this blog. It illustrates how you can Export a workflow and Import the workflow into a new schema.
