Have you watched the lecture on Books of Prime Entry. The receivables ledger control account is the total receivables account in the nominal/general ledger, and is part of the double entry. The receivables ledger is a book with an account for each individual customer - it just keeps a note of how much each customer owes us, and is not part of the double entry.
