you have to create new form field in admin template file, for exmaple with id= "yourVariable"

then in login.js file you have to include it to the data param (in ajax query)

function doAjaxLogin(redirect) {
	$('#error').hide();
	$('#login_form').fadeIn('slow', function() {
		$.ajax({
			type: "POST",
			headers: { "cache-control": "no-cache" },
			url: "ajax-tab.php" + '?rand=' + new Date().getTime(),
			async: true,
			dataType: "json",
			data: {
				ajax: "1",
				token: "",
				controller: "AdminLogin",
				submitLogin: "1",
				passwd: $('#passwd').val(),
				email: $('#email').val(),
                                yourVariable: $('#yourVariable').val(),
				redirect: redirect,

after that you can handle this variable with tools::getValue('yourVariable') in AdminLoginController

controllers/admin/AdminLoginController.php

 

this is controller file of login process (to back office).

there is a function:

public function processLogin()

and this is what you're looking for (especially this part: $this->context->employee->getByEmail($email, $passwd) :-) i hope so!
