KOMA-script: Write "Appendix" in the table of contents

Question

I have

\newcommand*{\appendixmore}{%
\renewcommand*{\sectionformat}{%
\appendixname~\thesection\autodot\enskip}%
\renewcommand*{\sectionmarkformat}{%
\appendixname~\thesection\autodot\enskip}}

from the KOMA-script p. 517, causes the word "Appendix" to appear before the sections in the appendix.

How do I achieve this in the TOC?

1. A Section
Appendix A. A Section in the Appendix
            A.1. A Subsection in the Appendix 
Appendix B. Another Section in the Appendix

MWE:

\documentclass[english]{scrartcl} 
\usepackage{babel}

\newcommand*{\appendixmore}{%
\renewcommand*{\sectionformat}{%
\appendixname~\thesection\autodot\enskip}%
\renewcommand*{\sectionmarkformat}{%
\appendixname~\thesection\autodot\enskip}}

\begin{document}
\tableofcontents   
 \section{A Section} ...
 \appendix       
\section{A Section in the Appendix} ...
\subsection{A Subsection in the Appendix} ...
\section{Another Section in the Appendix} ...
\end{document}

\documentclass[english]{scrartcl}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage{xparse}

\NewDocumentCommand\setappendixprefix{}
{% 
 \DeclareTOCStyleEntry[entrynumberformat=\appendixname~,dynnumwidth=true]{default}{section}
}

\newcommand*{\appendixmore}{%
   \renewcommand*{\sectionformat}{%
      \appendixname~\thesection\autodot\enskip}%
   \renewcommand*{\sectionmarkformat}{%
      \appendixname~\thesection\autodot\enskip}
   \addtocontents{toc}{\setappendixprefix}
   }


\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
 \section{A Section} ...
 \appendix
\section{A Section in the Appendix} ...
\subsection{A Subsection in the Appendix} ...
\section{Another Section in the Appendix} ...

\end{document}

Ah, ok. I think, there is a problem with "A.1. ..." this should appear in under "A Section...", like the other toc-entries. I wrote down my ilustration wrong.

Update:

Since KOMA-Script version 3.31 option dynindent can be used in the optional argument of \DeclareTOCStyleEntries:

\documentclass[english]{scrartcl}[2020/07/22]% needs version 3.31 or newer
\usepackage{blindtext}% only for dummy text
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage{xparse}
\usepackage{calc}
\newcommand\useprefix[2]{#1#2}
\NewDocumentCommand\appendixprefixintoc{}
{%
  \DeclareTOCStyleEntry
    [%
      entrynumberformat=\useprefix{\appendixname~},% add the prefix before the entrynumber
      dynnumwidth
    ]{default}{section}
  \DeclareTOCStyleEntries[%
    dynindent
  ]{default}{subsection,subsubsection,paragraph,subparagraph}
}
\newcommand{\appendixmore}{%
  \renewcommand{\sectionformat}{%
    \appendixname~\thesection\autodot\enskip}%
  \renewcommand*{\sectionmarkformat}{%
    \appendixname~\thesection\autodot\enskip}%
  \addtocontents{toc}{\appendixprefixintoc}%
}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\blinddocument
\appendix
\blinddocument
\end{document}

Run three times to get the same result as in my original answer (see below).

Original answer: Here is a suggestion that needs KOMA-Script version 3.27 or newer:

\documentclass[english]{scrartcl}[2019/10/13]% needs version 3.27 or newer
\usepackage{blindtext}% only for dummy text
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage{xparse}
\usepackage{calc}
\newcommand\useprefix[2]{#1#2}
\newlength\appendixprefixwidth
\NewDocumentCommand\appendixprefixintoc{}
{%
  \setlength\appendixprefixwidth{%
    \widthof{\usekomafont{sectionentry}\appendixname~}}% measure needed additional space
  \DeclareTOCStyleEntry
    [%
      entrynumberformat=\useprefix{\appendixname~},% add the prefix before the entrynumber
      numwidth+=\appendixprefixwidth% enlarge numwidth for level section
    ]{default}{section}
  \DeclareTOCStyleEntries[%
    indent+=\appendixprefixwidth% enlarge indent for other levels
  ]{default}{subsection,subsubsection,paragraph,subparagraph}
}
\newcommand{\appendixmore}{%
  \renewcommand{\sectionformat}{%
    \appendixname~\thesection\autodot\enskip}%
  \renewcommand*{\sectionmarkformat}{%
    \appendixname~\thesection\autodot\enskip}%
  \addtocontents{toc}{\appendixprefixintoc}%
}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\blinddocument
\appendix
\blinddocument
\end{document}

How do I make it work for scrreport? I get the error Package scrkbase Error: font of elementsectionentry' can't be used. \appendixprefixintoc` — homocomputeris, Nov 02 '20 at 14:05
@homocomputeris With scrreprt the appendices are chapters. scrreprt does not provide the elment sectionentry but chapterentry. You can also ask a new question including a MWE for scrreprt. — esdd, Nov 04 '20 at 20:29

The add "Appendix" to chapters instead:

\newcommand\useprefix[2]{#1#2}
\NewDocumentCommand\appendixprefixintoc{}
{%
  \DeclareTOCStyleEntry
    [%
      entrynumberformat=\useprefix{\appendixname~},% add the prefix before the entrynumber
      dynnumwidth
    ]{default}{chapter}
  \DeclareTOCStyleEntries[%
    dynindent
  ]{default}{chapter,subsection,subsubsection,paragraph,subparagraph}
}
\newcommand{\appendixmore}{%
  \renewcommand{\chapterformat}{%
    \appendixname~\thechapter\autodot\enskip}%
  \renewcommand*{\chaptermarkformat}{%
    \appendixname~\thechapter\autodot\enskip}%
  \addtocontents{toc}{\appendixprefixintoc}%
}
