A better explanation of what you are trying to do with that numbering scheme would help.

What defines when to use a different sequence?

Are you using auto-numbering?  There is an issue with that, it causes numbers to be skipped in certain instances.

It is a requirement from client.

Different schema based on the combination(or concatenation) of 3 attributes together. 

3 digit autonumbering at the end of the combination.

No numbers to be skipped.
