First, let's get some terminology straight, because otherwise you'll
be very confused.
You want to change the stock number (stock_num). This field is also
known as stock code or SKU, depending on your organisation.
You do not want to touch stock ID, which is a system generated field.

It is possible, you'll have to make some adjustments to add in parent
category.
1. See class.so_perp_stock.inc.php, suggest_stock_number().
You'll have to look up the stock item's category, find the parent
category, and add that into the sprintf.
2. Add your new parameter into class.hook_perp_inventory.inc.php,
around line 137.
When done, you should be able to use this as a stock number format:
%2$02d.%6$03d.%1$05d
After you get it working, please send a diff and I'll add it into SVN.
