I need to figure out the last time that a function was used by SQL Server. How can I do this?
I work with databases that contain thousands of stored procedures and hundreds of functions. I have found on-line methods to track the usage of stored procedures; however, I haven't seen the same for functions. Any ideas?

You can use Change Data Capture or Change tracking to analyse the required changes here
You might need to drill down more with Sql server audit to capture the required use for the function in question SQL Server Audit Action Groups and Actions
Also,
You can get a possible idea as mentioned here:using below query
SELECT usecounts
FROM sys.dm_exec_cached_plans
CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(plan_handle)
WHERE sys.dm_exec_sql_text.objectid=object_id('YourFunction')
So basically you have to find a proper way to analyse the usage.
Thanks KASQLDBA. I was hoping to find something with a small footprint like the following for stored procedure usage: SELECT OB.name, OB.object_id AS [ObjectID], MAX(last_execution_time) AS [LastRun] FROM sys.objects AS [OB] INNER JOIN sys.dm_exec_procedure_stats AS [DMEPS] ON OB.object_id = DMEPS.object_id WHERE OB.type = 'P' AND DMEPS.database_id = DB_ID() GROUP BY OB.name, OB.object_id; Thanks for the ideas!
