Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the accounting treatment of sundry creditors. Payments made to creditors typically reduce the balance, appearing on the debit side. Conversely, if you owe money to creditors (payables), this represents a liability and is shown on the credit side. The thread also explains why a sundry creditor account might show a debit balance, such as overpayment or unrecorded transactions.

1. If you paid amount to Your creditors as per purchases/inwards then it will tallied, no balance shown...
1.1 . If You are paid lesser amount then the balance shown Cr side.
1.2 . If You are paid more amount then the balance shown Dr side.


2. If You are payable to Creditors then its shown in Cr side...

1. Generally, Sundry Creditor  should show credit balance as it is a liability. But in your accounts, if it is showing debit balance means

i) You have paid more than actual liability or

ii) You have forgotten to enter any other purchase or like transaction in your accounting or

iii) You have paid with interest and forgot to account it

 

2. Payable is something related to liability so it will impact our balance sheet on liabilities side. So it should show credit balance.
