Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this article is to formulate the main direction of improvement of data about receivables generated in information control subsystems of trading companies that supply traditional energy resources (natural gas and electricity) to non-household consumers, in terms of forming a full cash flow management system in strict connection with the terms of contracts.The article systematically considers the problem of inadequate control over the payments for the consumed energy resources by non- household clients of domestic trading energy companies. The law aspects governing the contractual relations of the partners during the supply of energy resources are established. The typical conditions of payments for the consumed energy resources and ways of their adequate reflection in information subsystems of trading companies are defined.It is assumed that in order to solve the applied task, the information subsystems of accounting and control of trading companies must operate with the following information, which will be provided to the management system to make informed management decisions: a) general payment terms of each non- household counterparty; b) the current schedule of payment of each counterparty in connection with the terms of the signed contract; c) binding payment terms to the month of delivery (M); the month preceding the month of delivery (M - 1) and the month following the month of delivery (M + 1); d) dynamic change of the payment schedule according to additional agreements signed by the partners.As a result of research of the specified problem in all important aspects, practical recommendations on display in information subsystems of trading companies of the information on the schedule of payments for the consumed energy resources with a reference to a month of delivery are developed. Therefore, specific solutions are proposed for the algorithmization of procedures for controlling the timeliness of payments to counterparties and the formation on this basis of the necessary information for the management system of overdue debt. Further research in researched direction should focus on improving the final documents on the control of payment discipline of counterparties and management reporting on the timeliness of counterparties' payments for energy consumed.
