How do I know where change went after 'z_sendmany'?

Technical Support
1

‘z_sendmany’ says it returns change to a new taddr (different from the source taddr). How do I know that new taddr and how do I get control over it?
I know I can reveal that taddr using ‘decoderawtransaction’ command. But is there a simpler way? Also, this taddr is not returned by ‘getaddressesbyaccount’ command. Is it a feature or bug?

The new T address will show up in the wallet - its balance will be visible. You can then spend from it.

3

also, if the source and destination are both z_addr’s, there won’t be a new change address generated, it’ll just stay in the same zaddr. the listunspent command should also show you all change addresses, too, IIRC

4

‘listunspent’ shows the taddr. What is my supposed behavior relating to this taddr? Should I withdraw from it to another addr ASAP, or it is OK to keep it as is and/or use it as a destination for incoming transactions?

5

its fine to keep it, or send its contents to another address (zaddr if you want to shield it), whichever you do is fine
