Finance Automation #4273: Inventory Management with Intercom + HubSpot + Asana

Problem

inventory management between Intercom, HubSpot, Asana is error-prone when finance teams reconcile billing, invoices, or ledger entries by hand.

Automating validations before writes to HubSpot lowers reconciliation risk.
