This trigger will work even if you don't have the primary key on any table. Mechanism to configure the primary key in config table has been provided. This can be very helpful to solve the system audit requirements without much efforts.
Disclaimer : Audit Log trigger has performance overhead. It’s meant for table which is not frequently updated, deleted or inserted. Please take precaution when creating the trigger on the table having too many columns.

The function is an inline table-valued function (or sometimes called a parameterised view) so it can be used just like a view or a table but needs parameters. It generates a single-column table of datetime2 with rows differing by any multiple of any of the dateparts that SQL Server provides.
