@mmchx, I just ran a test. Here is what I did:
I created this Excel File:
Then I created a DataFlow to load the Excel data into an Existing Dataverse Table.
I created the Dataverse table with only one custom column (Auto-Number)
The seed was Test as Prefix and 1000.
Ran the DataFlow:
The result:
I created the CC record in Dataverse. Records A to E were created via the Dataflow and the flow generated the ID value (of the AutoNumber Column) automatically.

Actually, both of them.
First scenario
1. doing the migration process first which needs dataverse auto-generate the number when migrating the data.
2. User who can add/edit data to dataverse, can add record and dataverse needs to auto-generate the number after the last record from the migration process. but the issue occurs when a user added the record after the migration process. It doesn't auto-generate numbers correctly as I mentioned.
For example
I migrated data(Excel file) and created column "ID" in the excel file (HC-0001 to HC-0030), after the user added the new record directly to dataverse. the expected result is dataverse auto-generate number to HC-0031 but the dataverse generated HC-0001 instead.
Second scenario
1. I manually created 30 records directly to dataverse (HC-0001 to HC-0030)via Power app Excel add-in. (Dataverse auto-generated number correctly).
2. User would like to import the data to the dataverse via data flow by using the Excel file. which the user has already created the ID column and created the seed number in the excel file. (This one is in case the user has multiple records and they don't like to copy-paste.)
For example
I manually created on the dataverse -> the auto-number are HC-0001 to HC-0030, then the user imported 2 record from the Excel file to dataverse and already defined the seed number which is HC-0031 & HC-0032. Once imported completely, Ok it shows HC-0031 & HC-0032. But if the user created the record (directly on dataverse) after importing it auto-generated HC-0031 & HC-0032 so, this will be 2 records that have ID: HC-0031 and 2 records that have HC-0032.
