How to connect the QuickBooks (QODBC) data through Pentaho (Kettle) for ETL?

I am trying to connect the QuickBooks (QODBC) application data through Pentaho (Kettle) for ETL process. Would like to know how can we connect the QuickBooks (QODBC) application data through Pentaho.
Pentaho's ODBC connections use the JDBC-ODBC bridge that is bundled with Java.
The JDBC-ODBC bridge driver was removed in Java 8, preventing ODBC drivers from being usable in newer versions of Pentaho or other Java-based applications.
Generally, in such scenario, we suggest to use MS-Access (third Party application -->MS Access--> Linked tables-->QRemote-->QODBC-->QuickBooks Data), but in this case, accessing MS-Access also requires OBDC. A JDBC driver called UCanAccess is available as an alternative.
The limitation of UCanAccess is that it does not allow to query linked table and can only connect to ms-access base tables.
I would suggest to get in touch with Pentaho and see if you can get a version that allows JDBC-ODBC connection (Generic ODBC) via DSN.

MobileFirst SQL Adapters requestTimeoutInSeconds

I have WL6.0 project that contains SQL adapter. The adapter has procedure with requestTimeoutInSeconds="240" and I am trying to migrate that project to WL7.1.
As per Adapter timeout and concurrency article on IBM Knowledge Center, I have to use JNDI config instead.
The requestTimeoutInSeconds attribute of and
elements is ignored. Use JNDI configuration instead.
Can any one provide an example how to implement that?
I am working on MobileFirst Studio 7.1 and I imported the project with no errors.
Note that you are developing in MobileFirst Studio, which utilizes the Liberty application server as its underlying server.
Locally such changes are not required, since you're working locally...
This will become important once you start on moving to testing and production environments.
This means that you will need to update the server.xml of your WebSpher full profile/Liberty profile - not the server.xml of the server in MobileFist Studio.
You you can find documentation for this in the Liberty docs, here: http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/was_beta_liberty/com.ibm.websphere.wlp.nd.multiplatform.doc/ae/twlp_dep_configuring_ds.html
Note that the setup you need to do differs based on your database type: MySQL, Oracle, DB2, ... You can find examples for each database type in the link above.

Can we use server configuration tool for MFP Foundation on IBM Container(Bluemix)?

Server Configuration Tool needs Database Settings(host,port,username,password,dbname) and AppServer Settings(installation directory,username,password) information. The tool also need to access database directly.
The MFPF docs doesn't provide such kind of information. Is there anyway to user server configuration tool for MFPF on ibm container?
It is not possible to use the Server configuration tool for IBM Containers deployment. The only current way is to use the scripts as provided and instructed, here: https://developer.ibm.com/mobilefirstplatform/documentation/getting-started-7-1/bluemix/run-foundation-on-bluemix/

SAP Adapters in IBM MobileFirst

I'm working on SAP Adapters in IBM Mobilefirst. I have connected to SAP System by using SAP Netweaver Adapter and I'm trying add SAP as a Backend Service but it is failing to fetch the services.
And while I'm creating SAP Netweaver Adapter by default this is created: <serviceRootUrl>/sap/opu/odata/IWBEP/RMTSAMPLEFLIGHT_2/</serviceRootUrl>. Is this inbuilt service?
You did not provide any useful information in the question, such as steps to reproduce.
Per the comments, you say you're getting a 404 error - you need to verify that you are using the correct service URL.

Can we implement IWAP reports with IBM Worklight developer edition

Can we implement IWAP reports with developer edition of IBM Worklight 6.0 ? If yes please guide me with technical document or any link. Is this feature only available with Enterprise or Consumer version ?
If yes then how can we implement/test this on development environment. And can anyone please provide me with list of features which are not available with developer version(one which comes into my mind is Application Center).
The Operational Analytics feature introduced in Worklight 6.0 is only available for paid versions of IBM Worklight 6.0. There's a file (analytics.zip) in the resulting IBM Installation Manager output folder that contains everything you need to setup the IBM Websphere Analytics Platform (IWAP). Once you have IWAP installed, you will need to modify a couple of properties inside worklight.properties which, among other things, tell the Worklight Server where to send the analytics data.
Regarding features found only in paid versions, beside Application Center and Operational Analytics, ability to use other DBMS (MySQL, DB2, etc.) and Application Servers (WAS, Tomcat, etc.). There are also Ant scripts that aim to help with common tasks like deployments.
