Tabs on Custom Objects in Salesforce

Tabs on Custom Objects in Salesforce

If you are like me, sometimes, when creating a Custom Object in a Salesforce org, you forget to click the checkbox next to create a custom tab, and then you cannot locate your Custom Object in your Salesforce Org.  Did you know you can add it later with Custom Tabs?


To add tabs to a Custom Object:

  • Go to Setup
  • Search for Tabs in the Quick Find Box
  • Click Tabs
  • Create New
  • Choose the Custom Object from the dropdown box
  • Choose a Tab style (Icon)
  • Enter a description
  • Click Next
  • Click Next

Now, your problem is fixed. Now you can pretend your mistake didn’t happen and move on to other issues.
