How to create Tab with form fields in admin customer edit section Adobe Commerce (Magento 2)

Updated 18 December 2025

Here we will learn how to add a Tab with form fields in the Admin custom edit section in Adobe Commerce (Magento 2)

Customer edit section
1. Create a file Webkul/CustomerEdit/view/adminhtml/layout/customer_index_edit.xml.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" layout="admin-2columns-left"
      xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
    <body>
        <referenceBlock name="customer_form">
             <block class="Webkul\CustomerEdit\Block\Adminhtml\Customer\Edit\Tabs" name="custom_edit_tab_view" />
        </referenceBlock>    
    </body>
</page>

2. Now, create the Tabs.php in Webkul/CustomerEdit/Block/Adminhtml/Customer/Edit as we defined in the customer_index_edit.xml file

<?php
namespace Webkul\CustomerEdit\Block\Adminhtml\Customer\Edit;

use Magento\Customer\Controller\RegistryConstants;
use Magento\Ui\Component\Layout\Tabs\TabInterface;
use Magento\Backend\Block\Widget\Form;
use Magento\Backend\Block\Widget\Form\Generic;

/**
 * Customer account form block
 */
class Tabs extends Generic implements TabInterface
{
    /**
     * @var \Magento\Store\Model\System\Store
     */
    protected $_systemStore;

    /**
     * @var \Magento\Framework\Registry
     */
    protected $_coreRegistry;

    /**
     * @param \Magento\Backend\Block\Template\Context $context
     * @param \Magento\Framework\Registry $registry
     * @param \Magento\Framework\Data\FormFactory $formFactory
     * @param \Magento\Store\Model\System\Store $systemStore
     * @param array $data
     */
    public function __construct(
        \Magento\Backend\Block\Template\Context $context,
        \Magento\Framework\Registry $registry,
        \Magento\Framework\Data\FormFactory $formFactory,
        \Magento\Store\Model\System\Store $systemStore,
        array $data = []
    ) {
        $this->_coreRegistry = $registry;
        $this->_systemStore = $systemStore;
        parent::__construct($context, $registry, $formFactory, $data);
    }

    /**
     * @return string|null
     */
    public function getCustomerId()
    {
        return $this->_coreRegistry->registry(RegistryConstants::CURRENT_CUSTOMER_ID);
    }

    /**
     * @return \Magento\Framework\Phrase
     */
    public function getTabLabel()
    {
        return __('Demo Tab');
    }

    /**
     * @return \Magento\Framework\Phrase
     */
    public function getTabTitle()
    {
        return __('Demo Tab');
    }

    /**
     * @return bool
     */
    public function canShowTab()
    {
        if ($this->getCustomerId()) {
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }

    /**
     * @return bool
     */
    public function isHidden()
    {
        if ($this->getCustomerId()) {
            return false;
        }
        return true;
    }

    /**
     * Tab class getter
     *
     * @return string
     */
    public function getTabClass()
    {
        return '';
    }

    /**
     * Return URL link to Tab content
     *
     * @return string
     */
    public function getTabUrl()
    {
        return '';
    }

    /**
     * Tab should be loaded trough Ajax call
     *
     * @return bool
     */
    public function isAjaxLoaded()
    {
        return false;
    }

    public function initForm()
    {
        if (!$this->canShowTab()) {
            return $this;
        }
        /**@var \Magento\Framework\Data\Form $form */
        $form = $this->_formFactory->create();
        $form->setHtmlIdPrefix('myform_');
        
        $fieldset = $form->addFieldset('base_fieldset', ['legend' => __('Fields Information')]);
        $rowcom = "test";
        $fieldset->addField(
            'demo_field',
            'text',
            [
                'name' => 'demo_field',
                'data-form-part' => $this->getData('target_form'),
                'label' => __('Demo Field in Customer Section'),
                'title' => __('Demo Field in Customer Section'),
                'value' => $rowcom,
            ]
        );
        $this->setForm($form);
        return $this;
    }

    /**
     * @return string
     */
    protected function _toHtml()
    {
        if ($this->canShowTab()) {
            $this->initForm();
            return parent::_toHtml();
        } else {
            return '';
        }
    }

    /**
     * Prepare the layout.
     *
     * @return $this
     */
    public function getFormHtml()
    {
        $html = parent::getFormHtml();
        // You can call other Block also by using this function if you want to add phtml file. Otherwise, you can remove it.
        $html .= $this->getLayout()->createBlock(
            'Webkul\CustomerEdit\Block\Adminhtml\Customer\Edit\Tab\AdditionalBlock'
        )->toHtml();
        return $html;
    }
}

Now reload the page, and Tab will be displayed.
