Solution 1

The whole point of a function is to return something. If it returns nothing, why do you want to call it ? You can return whatever you like, if you're going to ignore it, surely ?

Solution 3

There is no option to create a Function, without return values. Just think what you will achieve by calling void UDF in another query.

Think about CTE (Common Table expression) in SQL server & replace the UDF with a CTE
