EDIT (SOLVED) The below answer by LaRiFaRi successfully allowed me to introduce appendicies where desired, however they have a serious issue with the minitoc. After the first appendix the next chapter loses its minitoc. This does not happen if the appendix is included as \appendix however this does cause every successive chapter to be an appendix (unless there is a known way to stop this command?).
Please could you help fix the interaction between the two? The updated MWE from the original one is included at the bottom of this post.
Original post
I have subdivided my thesis into several parts since they are based on different methods employed. To make things more readable and light I want to move certain common information within each part to an appendix.
How can I insert appendices that show up just at the end of the part section rather than at the end of the entire document?
I know I could add a chapter rather than an appendix for this, however an appendix makes much more sense. Please find my MWE below with my customised chapter heading style with a TOC, Part and Chapter.

Best Answer
With help of the package
appendixyou can add an appendix whenever you want. When using this package and when using one of the KOMA-classes,minitocwrites the following into the.log-file:I looked in the minitoc package documentation and adapted the code for you. But you should definitely read the chapters 1.5.5, 2.20, and 2.35 as you will run in several other problems when adding lof, lot, bib, and so on.
