You only need to update the records in table2 if the column intannualyear is involved. Also, this is an alternative UPDATE syntax across two tables from what Martin has shown

IF UPDATE(intannualyear)
    UPDATE table2
    SET    annualyear = inserted.intannualyear
    FROM   inserted
    WHERE table2.id = inserted.id
