Hi Shahzaib Ismail Khan,
You will have to prepend the generated sequence with the cash book, date and whatever your other requirements are.
Use can use the code like below:
declare
seq_num number;
begin
    seq_num := :<block.voucher_type>||'/'||:<block.payment / received voucher>||'/'||:<to_char(:<block.voucher_date>,'MM')||'/'||to_char(<block.voucher_date>,'YYYY')||'/'||<your seqname>.nextval;
You can then use seq_num in your application as the sequence.I hope you understand the logic.
Modify the code as per your need replacing with proper data block name and item.
Hope it helps.
Please mark answer as helpful / correct, if it helps you
