Implementation

When creating a new instance of an entity.

var i = new Invoice();
i.Created(user);

When updating an existing entity

i.Modified(user);

Applying to a database entity.

public partial class Invoice : IAuditable { }

Reusable Code

public interface IAuditable
{
    DateTime UpdatedOn { get; set; }
    string UpdatedBy { get; set; }
    DateTime CreatedOn { get; set; }
    string CreatedBy { get; set; }
}


public static class IAuditableExtension
{
    public static void Audit(this IAuditable e, bool createNew, string byUser)
    {
        if (e == null)
            return;

        var dtNow = DateTime.UtcNow;

        if (createNew)
        {
            e.CreatedOn = dtNow;
            e.CreatedBy = user;
        }

        e.UpdatedOn = DateTime.UtcNow;
        e.UpdatedBy = user;
    }

}
