What is the best practice to enable a user to add a "Customer" to a Form called "Transactions"
So basically we want a user to be able to select a customer into a form field if the customer already exist and if they don't we want the user to be able to add a new customer to the "Transaction" form without leaving the "Transaction" form and that new customer will be added to the system for future selection.

You need to decide a field to make unique for whatever form becomes the new customer form. Maybe that is an email address. Transactions might be a repeater field or a field that captures a customer entry ID or entry Key or something else to help filter what transactions belong to which customer. On the transaction page you might have a button that opens a modal to the new customer form. Then again, maybe it makes sense to not allow a customer to the transaction form if they don't have an account. You can limit visibility of the transaction form to logged in users.
