How can I embed a customer existing web based application with in salesforce as a tab.
Customer has built a u/I for their legacy application (AS400) and renders key sales/order reports to the reps in the field. All I am trying to do this get this as another tab with in their salesforce ORG. Nothing fancy, the data source, the current application what data it pulls all remains as is. I am not trying to replicate the functionality in salesforce (simply put). I know we can this with canvas app. If any of you have done it, kindly expand on it. thank you

Check out this guide. This demonstrates with a simple step by step method. Just ignore the part of creating canvas app on heroku. Rest of the items will be similer.

Not a tab,tutorial is for SF1, but you might find it helpful. May be what akram intended to link to.

But using Canvas is recommended. As many advanced security features can be implemented using canvas.

src attribute should have the URL for the landing page of legacy app.
To make a VF page available as a tab -
Setup -> Create -> Tabs -> New (under VisualForce tabs)
That's all you need in my opinion.
