One thing to consider was that we had to build this in about 5-6 months from the ground up, and match it to our existing financial system. Most of the work was to derive the financial meaning from a system not designed to provide it. The traditional ways you would extract data into an ERP would be with raw data import, or with some slightly processed data. If we did that, we still have the problem of tightly coupling data models and accounting logic, which makes for very slow engineering progress on the product front. Not a tradeoff we want to make.
If you were talking about exporting the data from the event based system, then that's still possible, and I think it's something that our finance team may still be evaluating, but I can't speak for them.
Airbnb's data models weren't initially designed to be financially reported on, and by the time we needed better financial reporting, it was too late to change those models. 90% of the work was about rethinking the way to think about all of this, what financial impact should be booked, and how it could be derived from the data. None of the ERP solutions fit our use case, and I think it would have been very difficult to integrate.
We still use a general ledger to book the outputs of our new financial pipeline, but I don't think we have a traditional business model (no traditional inventory management). That's more in the finance and accounting department though, and I can't speak much to that.
