Hi Greg,
I would tend to agree with Lars that this should really not ever be
required, but it would be good to know what the use case actually is.

The easiest way to do this would be to create an SQL view in DHIS2 as

SELECT currval('hibernate_sequence')


In a multi-user database environment, this value is of course volatile, so
you can never be sure what the actual current value is.

If you really need to inject SQL into your database, then using something
like 'nextval('hibernate_sequence'::regclass)'in your SQL, which will
provide the next value of the sequence.

Regards,
Jason
