How to apply sorting for the new items added in .NET MAUI DataGrid (SfDataGrid)?

Sorting can be applied to new items added in .NET MAUI DataGrid by setting the LiveDataUpdateMode property to AllowDataShaping.

xaml:

<Grid RowDefinitions="*,50">
  <syncfusion:SfDataGrid  x:Name="dataGrid" 
                          ItemsSource="{Binding Employees}"
                          Grid.Row="0"
                          AutoGenerateColumnsMode="None"
                          LiveDataUpdateMode="AllowDataShaping"
                          SortingMode="Single"
                          DefaultColumnWidth="155">
      <syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>
          <syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="EmployeeID"
                                         HeaderText="Employee ID" />
          <syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="Name"
                                         HeaderText="Name" />
          <syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="IDNumber"
                                         HeaderText="ID Number" />
      </syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>

  </syncfusion:SfDataGrid>
  <Button Clicked="Button_Clicked"
          WidthRequest="200"
          HorizontalOptions="Start"
          Margin="80,0,0,3"
          Grid.Row="1"
          Text="Add Item" />
</Grid>

xaml.cs:

private void Button_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  viewModel.Employees.Add(new Employee()
  {
      EmployeeID = "1002",
      Name = "Sean Jacobson",
      IDNumber = 99,
      ContactID = 199,
      ManagerID = 2,
      LoginID = "sean2",
      Gender = "Male",
      Title = "GM",
      MaritalStatus = "Single",
      HireDate = new DateTime(2023, 01, 03),
      BirthDate = new DateTime(2023, 01, 03),
      SickLeaveHours = 14,
      Salary = 5999,
      EmployeeStatus = true,
      Rating = 1,
  });
}

Executing the code example above yields the following output.
