Triggers are functions that happen based on when predetermined actions occur. When code is placed in these triggers, it is executed whenever the trigger is executed. It is important to note, however, that a trigger can be bypassed using business logic, so you cannot 100% guarantee that a trigger will fire.

The examples we looked at were table triggers that executed when a record was inserted into the table and any time a field was validated. There are many other triggers that are available for you to use in your AL coding. Each different AL object type has its own set of triggers.
