The current field must match the join key?

I have 3 tables:
Inventory
Manufacturer
Purchased

With the following relationships;
Inventory links to Manufacturer via Manufacturer Name and Model Number.
Inventory links to Puchased via Order number and Model Number

When I try to add a new record via a form it get the following error:

 "Then current field must match the join key'?' in the table that serves as the 'one' side of the one-to-many relationship.  Enter a record in the 'one' side table with the desired key value, and then make the entry with the desired join key in the 'many-only' table.

I assume it gives this error because I can't update the Model number and Order number at the same time.  Any thoughts?

"Inventory links to Puchased via Order number and Model Number"

Really? Why would you want to store order numbers in an inventory record?
