The case at a glance

01 · Challenge

Evolve a legacy financial application while preserving essential business behavior.

02 · Intervention

GeneXus conversion, knowledge-base alignment, security evolution and scoped functional checks.

03 · Outcome

The historical experience documents a standardized web version validated for the described scope.

Client and context

Eximus worked with the provider of a GeneXus-based credit risk application on a historical desktop-to-web modernization.

Challenge

Legacy knowledge bases and dependencies required careful conversion, alignment and functional checks.

Contribution

The historical engagement describes a move from GeneXus 9 to 16, GAM security, schema alignment and iterative functional verification. It was more than moving screens.

Documented outcome

The historical case records a standardized web version validated for the described scope. It does not establish on-time delivery, quantified reporting performance recovery, certified regulatory compliance or absolute continuity. Later support and accounting optimization are separate engagements.

Project technologies and environment

The historical baseline used GeneXus 9.0 with desktop variants generated in Visual Basic 6 and .NET Framework 3.5, on SQL Server 2008 R2. The documented destination was GeneXus 16 U6, the .NET Framework 4.7.1 generator and a web platform, with SQL Server 2019, WorkWithPlus, GAM and GeneXus Server 16 for source control. The web version ran in IIS on Windows Server; their exact versions are not specified. The later GeneXus 18 and .NET Core upgrade is a separate scope and is not presented as an outcome of this migration.

Technical lesson

Conversion and compilation still require specific functional checks and acceptance.

Next step
