One thing that many people tried to implement in SQL Server 2000 is the auditing of logins. However getting this to work was a complex process.

In SQL Server 2005, you can explicitly or implicitly define the execution context. As we all know, a session starts when a user logs on to SQLServer or a connection to SQLserver is made. All operations in that session use the logon credentials used for connecting to SQL Server. When an EXECUTE AS statement is run, the execution context of the session is switched to the specified login or user name.

I try to run this code on SQL Server 2022. All the objects exist in the database.
CREATE OR ALTER VIEW OrderShipping
AS
SELECT cl.CityNameID,
cl.CityName,
o.OrderID,
o.Customer,
o.OrderDate,
o.CustomerID,
o.cityId
FROM dbo.CityList AS cl
INNER JOIN dbo.[Order] AS o ON o.cityId = cl.CityNameID
GO
CREATE OR ALTER FUNCTION GetShipCityForOrder
(
@OrderID INT
)
RETURNS VARCHAR(50)
WITH SCHEMABINDING
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @city VARCHAR(50);
SELECT @city = os.CityName
FROM dbo.OrderShipping AS os
WHERE os.OrderID = @OrderID;
RETURN @city;
END;
go
