Will a RV solar panel inverter be compatible with breaker panel that has a battery charger?

We are hooking solar panels up in our RV. However, in order to get the outlets to work, we have to plug our inverter into our breaker panel. The breaker panel has a battery charger and we're afraid of creating a giant "circle" of power that
