Adding CodeableConcept element to FHIR resource 'extension'

I am new to FHIR and HL7.

I need to add a new element to ChargeItemDefinition resource and this element data type is CodeableConcept.

I think we need to create a new StructureDefinition with a CodeableConcept field and then register it on the server and make an extension in ChargeItemDefinition.

I tried a tool like Forge to make a custom profile, but creating a new profile or extension is disabled.

But I can't make it after days of trying, does anyone have an example of this or is anyone able to help me?

Forge should perfectly allow you to create a profile based on ChargeItem, if you want to add extensions to that profile. With Forge for FHIR STU3 or R4 (depending on what version you want to use): Open a project folder > New > New Profile > Select Charge Item.

However, without knowing your use case it is hard to judge whether this is what you need. If you share a good description of the use case on chat.fhir.org in the 'implementers' channel people can generally quickly advise you on the best way.
