Form entry/Copy row automation/Row location

Hello all! I am really hoping this is something easy I am just overlooking. The sheet above has a form. When the form is completed the row of information does not populate in the first available row, but a random row typically 25+. The sheet above had the first row populate at 49 and the automation from this sheet to another sheet (same sheet replicated) had the row populate at 31. Is there a way to get these to populate at a designated row (to start with) or at the first available row?

Bonus Question- I would love to be able to limit a sheet to a specific amount of rows. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi @Ian777

    I hope you're well and safe!

    • You'll have to delete the previously used rows.
    • As a possible workaround, you could add a Workflow that Alerts when the number of rows has been reached, or it's getting close to it.

    Did that work/help?

    I hope that helps!

    Be safe and have a fantastic weekend!
