Abstract In the contemporary business landscape, enterprise systems such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Supply Chain Management (SCM), Enterprise Performance Management (EPM), and Human Capital Management (HCM) form the backbone of organizational operations. However, these systems often require extensions to address specific business needs, foster innovation, and enhance operational efficiency. Oracle Application Express (APEX) emerges as a powerful low-code platform for extending these functionalities, enabling rapid development of custom applications that integrate seamlessly with Oracle's enterprise suites. This article explores the integration processes, leveraging APEX's APIs and RESTful services to customize and innovate within ERP for financial management, SCM for logistics optimization, EPM for performance analytics, and HCM for workforce management. Through detailed methodology, discussions, and real-world business cases, it demonstrates how APEX facilitates agile extensions, reducing development time and costs while promoting data-driven decision-making. The literature review highlights existing implementations, while future trends point toward increased adoption of low-code tools for hybrid cloud environments. Ultimately, this work underscores APEX's role in driving business innovations by bridging gaps in standard enterprise systems, ensuring scalability, security, and user-centric designs.
