CREATE DEFINER = CURRENT_USER PROCEDURE `getReceiptNumber`(IN bankcode 
varchar,IN receipttype varchar,OUT seq int)
BEGIN
    update receipt_number 
    set seq_number = (seq_number + 1) 
    where bank_code = bankcode and receipt_type = receipttype;

Table Structure:

CREATE TABLE `receipt_number` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `bank_code` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  `cur_date` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,

Answer 1

You have not mentioned the size for in parameter varchar,

Try below code.

DELIMITER $$
CREATE DEFINER = CURRENT_USER PROCEDURE getReceiptNumber(IN bankcode VARCHAR(10),IN receipttype VARCHAR(10),OUT seq INT)
BEGIN
    UPDATE receipt_number 
    SET seq_number = (seq_number + 1) 
    WHERE bank_code = bankcode AND receipt_type = receipttype;
    SELECT seq_number FROM receipt_number WHERE bank_code = bankcode AND 
receipt_type = receipttype INTO seq; 
END$$

DELIMITER ;
