            );
        $field = $newFieldset-&gt;addField('password', 'text',
             array(
                  'label' =&gt; Mage::helper('customer')-&gt;__('Password'),
                  'class' =&gt; 'input-text required-entry validate-password',
                  'name'  =&gt; 'password', // This name is set as first argument in setData
                  'required' =&gt; true
                )
           );
       $customer-&gt;setData('password', 'mynewpass');  // Your default new password here
       $field-&gt;setRenderer($this-&gt;getLayout()-&gt;createBlock('adminhtml/customer_edit_renderer_newpass'));

$newFieldset = $form->addFieldset(

'password_fieldset',

array('legend'=>Mage::helper('customer')->__('Password Management'))

);

$field = $newFieldset->addField('password', 'text',

array(

'label' => Mage::helper('customer')->__('Password'),

'class' => 'input-text required-entry validate-password',

'name' => 'password', // This name is set as first argument in setData

'required' => true

)

);

$customer->setData('password', 'mynewpass'); // Your default new password here

$field->setRenderer($this->getLayout()->createBlock('adminhtml/customer_edit_renderer_newpass'));
