Hello,
I have to design a table wich will store some action reports. Each report have an ID like this 1/2004, 2/2004, ... and each years, they restart to 1 (1/2004, 1/2005, 1/2006,...).
So, I was thinking to split that in two fields : one with the increment and one with the year. But I don't know how can I manage the sequences since I have to restart to 0 each year...
Do you think I should re-invent the sequences mecanism with a second table and a stored procedure, only to manage theses 'home-made' sequences ?
Or should I create some sequences like myseq_2004, myseq_2004, my_seq_2005,... and use a concatenation of the myseq_ string and the current year when calling nextval and curvall ?
Or is there another way to do that ?
Thanks in advance :-)
