Trigger function for an insert/update trigger should return "NEW", not
NULL (OLD - for "on delete" trigger):
It's an AFTER TRIGGER, so the RETURN-Value ignored.
According the doc:
The return value of a BEFORE or AFTER statement-level trigger or an
AFTER row-level trigger is always ignored; it might as well be null.

We found the problem. I did some additional digging and learned the
admin in question was trying to trigger on a schema.table that didn't
exist! Yeah I did slap him around a bit ;-)
remembering the schema part of the name can be important!! ::grinz::
One further question, so we're doing inserts from a remote source (it's
a radware system feeding us data). Why would it stop the system from
inserting data when it's an after statement? I noticed a bunch of
'connection time out' messages in our logs.
It is working so I'm good. Still it is interesting the feed just
stopped when the trigger was enabled.
Thanks!
