Receiving error “Select statements included within a function cannot return data to a client”

Question

Receiving an error when attempting to use a Select statement in a function. The error states:

Msg 444, Level 16, State 2, Procedure JDE_GetWhereClause

Answer 1

Found this MSDN article helpful and it resolved my issue:

RETURN (SELECT GETDATE());

Returning values directly from a select statement, avoiding variable.
