Hello Ansh,

there is two approach to making this either you can have a seperate table in which you can define these case like for Employee "E000001" for purchase "PO00001"

Or you can have direct way like select max value from table employee substring the result and add 1 to numeric part and then combine again and ofcource check if its first value the hard code it with "E000001".

hoping this will help you

thanks
sanjeev
