So suppose we want to create a form with some fields ie. input fields, radio button etc.  and we need to save these data in Prestashop `configuration` table.

Also this form will be display at the position of renderList of your Admin controller.

public function __construct()
    {
        $this->context = Context::getContext();
        $this->bootstrap = true;
        $this->table = 'configuration';

        parent::__construct();

        $this->fields_options = array(
            'Form' => array(
                'title' => $this->l('Form'),
                'icon' => 'icon-cogs',
                'fields' => array(
                    'PS_NAME' => array(
                        'title' => $this->l('Customer Name'),
                        'type' => 'text',
                    ),
                    'PS_EMAIL' => array(
                        'title' => $this->l('Customer Email'),
                        'type' => 'text',
                    ),
                    'PS_DISPLAY_DETAILS' => array(
                       'title' => $this->l('Display Customer Details'),
                       'type' => 'bool',
                       'validation' => 'isBool',
                       'default' => '1'
                    ),
                ),
                'submit' => array('title' => $this->l('Save'))
            ),
        );
    }

Normally we use $this->fields_list for showing renderList in Admin controller __construct() function but here we will use $this->fields_options. So that we can display our form instead of renderList.

After this we can see form in our admin controller –
