When you create a custom object in Salesforce, a tab is not automatically created. The custom object is defined within the database, allowing for the storage and management of specific types of data, but the tab that provides a user interface for interacting with this object must be created separately. This design allows greater flexibility for administrators and developers to organize the user interface according to business needs, ensuring that only relevant objects are displayed to users.

If users wish to access the data associated with the custom object in the Salesforce interface, they must manually create a tab for it. This step is important in customizing the user experience and ensuring that only necessary information is presented, avoiding potential clutter in the user interface.

The other options discuss scenarios that do not apply to how custom objects function in Salesforce, clarifying that the automated creation of tabs is not a feature of custom objects specifically.
