RE: What is an Extension in Oracle Applications and What are the steps to implement Extensions?
An extension is a custom development which satisfies a business need which is not available in oracle apps.
If any Oracle Apps. module does not cover or does not have functionality to satisfy a customer requirement then an extension is carried out.
For example if you like to see the customer wise invoice no. and amount in AR which is not present in Apps. standard forms then you can develop a new form to satisfy this need. (But it is available actually)

Steps to implement extensions are
1. Try to solve the customer requirement with out any extensions if possible.
2. Create new tables forms and other database objects as per requirements.
3. register all the forms reports in the concerned modules.
4. If the extension is larger then go for a complete custom module. for example if you want to extend some functionality in GL module then go for a custom module XXGL with out customizing the GL module itself.
(You can refer Oracle Apps. developer document for more information)
