Description
Pluggable service layer that abstracts communication with external accounting backends such as Xledger and Microsoft Dynamics. It translates internal expense and financial data into the format required by each backend and dispatches API calls on behalf of the platform. The abstraction ensures new accounting systems can be added without changing platform code.

Sources & reasoning
Line 72 documents explicit per-org accounting system requirements (Xledger and Dynamics) for HLF and Blindeforbundet. Line 354 places this under Fase 3, mapping to v1.1. The need for a shared API abstraction across two different accounting backends with org-specific credentials directly motivates this feature.
