D&DBeyond provides the Basic Rules free of charge to any users, beyond that, you have to purchase sourcebooks (or individual classes, races, spells, monsters, etc) to be able to access them in full.
You can track purchases you have made on D&DBeyond using the "order history" tab under "marketplace"
But if you are asking about checking hardcopy books or digital books that you purchased already (and not from D&DBeyond), you can't transfer them...there are a lot of threads that explain why, but it would be like buying a book from Barnes & Noble Booksellers then asking Amazon to send you a free ebook version.
You hover over the "Sources" tab and a drop down will appear. On it you will see Basic Rules, Player's Handbook, etc. Click on the Basic Rules and it will open up for you.

Ok, how do i view them on DnDbeyond? do they not have a "bought source material" tab anywhere or do i have to navigate their source material tab ?

Go to your Account -> Marketplace then scroll down to Current Product Licenses there you can see what you own.
Hope that helps.
