I want a user defined function to mimic the same functionality in SQL server."

You don't need a UDF for it:

SELECT convert(int, num_value) --for numbers
SELECT DateAdd(day, DateDiff(day, 0, date_value), 0) --for dates

For numbers you can use Round function (also Floor, ceiling)
For dates use Convert function
