After performing an insert statement into the parent table (Auto increment ID generated from trigger),
how to make sure that i am getting back the correct ID in order for me to perform insertion into child table?

I don't quite understand your problem, but if you are using a sequence, you can always get the current value with something like this:
SELECT seqname.currval FROM dual;
INSERT INTO parent_table VALUES (seqname.nextval, ..
INSERT INTO child_table VALUES (seqname.currval, ...
Best regards.

Thanks for helping...
My concern is actually after insert into the parent table,
there might be someone else inserted into parent table as well,
just before i inserted data into child table
INSERT INTO parent_table VALUES (seqname.nextval, ..
INSERT INTO parent_table VALUES (seqname.nextval, ..
INSERT INTO child_table VALUES (seqname.currval (wrong value), ...
What is the common practise to avoid this happen?
Thanks.

Hi,
That is not a problem. CURRVAL will only return the last NEXTVAL value for your session. You don't have to worry about the other users at all.
Best regards.
