Kindly note that inventories are additional accounts and does not relate to purchase and hence purchase cannot be credited. The entries for stock automatically comes to stock accounts when the purchases are entered of any item in the purchase register. Hence these are memorandum enteries and hence purchase cannot be credited at all.
The inventories relate to either raw materials, stores and consumables or traded items and accordingly the stock account are credited by transfer to these relevant sub accounts like raw materials or stores and consumables or quantity of traded items for in or out of the traded items.
