'How do I input an incremented value into selected column in Oracle SQL and/or PL/SQL?

I am in the process of updating a huge DB and can not for the life of me figure this out.

SELECT rank_column FROM schema.table
WHERE id IN (x,y,z,a,b,c) AND lll AND ooo

I'm a little stuck here since I need to set rank_column for x to be updated to 1A, rank_column for y to be 2A, z to be 3A, etc.

There are only 30 or so values here so I can do them by hand, but on the more difficult note, I also need to need to rank the values NOT in this list and we're talking about somewhere near 300,000+. The order for these should not matter, but how do I set the first read row to 1Z, the second to 2Z, the third to 3Z, etc? Thank you for any help it would be much appreciated!

I attempted to use pl/sql but every single time, it updates with the very same number so I might have 1B for all when I want 1B,2B,3B etc. I need something like this down below except I need to iterate each for each row. I attempted to put iterate:=iterate+1 inside of the set statement so everytime it sets rank it will iterate that rank, but I keep returning "missing equal sign" on the set line right over the equal sign.

DECLARE
  iterate number:=1;
BEGIN
  UPDATE schema.table
     SET rank = iterate||'A'**,ITERATE = ITERATE + 1**
   WHERE ID IN (11111,22222,33333,44444,55555,66666,777777,88888,99999)
     AND type = '01'
     AND manufacturer = '000111'
     AND indicator = '0';
  iterate:= iterate +1;
END;

Are you looking for something like this?

update tab_lvl set rank=rownum||'A' where id in (30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100);
    
8 rows updated.
    
select id,rank from tab_lvl where id in (30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100);


        ID RANK
---------- ---------------
        30 1A
        40 2A
        50 3A
        60 4A
        70 5A
        80 6A
        90 7A
       100 8A

8 rows selected.
