Improving Datagrid Row Addition
After appending a new row to a datagrid, the new row insertion occurrs at the concluding section of the DataGrid, even though my current view is confined to page 1. This outcome holds the potential to bewilder users, as it contrasts with the anticipated experience. When a user undertakes the action of appending a new row to a DataGrid, it is a logical expectation that the newly added row should be prominently visible upon transitioning to the creation interface. To align with this user-centric principle, it is recommended that a design modification be implemented to guide users to the end of the DataGrid, ensuring their seamless interaction and coherent understanding of the added content upon clicking the creation button.

When a user clicks ADD ROW on a datagrid, the newly added row is added to the end of the table (it seems). Because pagination could be happening, the newly added row is not necessarily displayed to the user. This is very confusing to users.
I'm not sure what the best behavior is...but it seems to me that the easiest solution would be to add the row to the beginning of the table.
Of course, that doesn't help the user if they have paged at all, but I think it's a more likely scenario.
Additionally, a popup note to notify the user that they have added a row to the beginning or end could help them find it. MIght be worth consulting a few customers to see what could work.
