Automate sheet numbering using Dynamo

Hi all,
I've been using Revit for a long time now, but I just started exploring Dynamo.
At my practice we use a sheet numbering system comprised of a few parts. Sheets numbers would end up being something like GA-PLN-100, where GA means General Assembly, PLN is for plans, and 100 is, well, the actual number.
I tried several ways for making this numbering system easier to use, but I wondered if this could be achieved through Dynamo.
As of now, I have project parameters that are complete with General Assembly, Plans, and other stuff, that are useful to show what those things mean in say, the sheet schedule. But could those be used to complete the sheet number? I mean, if the "Sector" parameter says General Assembly, can Dynamo say "ok, then the number starts with GA" and so on? I wouldn't mind completing the number at the end, given it doesn't respond to an actual logic.
Also, before you guys say it, I already tried putting the "GA-PLN" as the sheet number prefix, but I would end up with only the 100 as the sheet number, wich repeates between disciplines. Revit won't allow that.
I'm not really sure if I made the point clear, but just in case I threw in a pic highlighting the parameters that relate to the sheet numbering (RED and BLUE), and the independent stuff (GREEN and YELLOW)
Feel free to ask me for more details.
