🧾 Creating and Managing Additional Accounts for Transaction Segmentation in Monero Wallet

➕ Create a New Account

account new <label>

• Example: account new donations

🏷️ Create and Label a Subaddress

address new <label>

• Example: address new Dev_Team

🔖 Assign a Tag to an Account

account tag <tag_name> <account_index>

• Example: account tag donate 1

📝 Set a Tag Description

account tag_description <tag_name> <description>

• Example: account tag_description donate "Donations to causes and projects"

💸 Send Funds from Account 0 to Account 1

First, switch to account 0 (if not already selected):

account switch 0

Then send funds to the Dev Team subaddress in account 1:

transfer <destination_address> <amount>

• Example:

transfer 88xkUv...xyz 0.04

🔄 Notes on Monero Account and Address Behaviour

• Monero treats each account holistically. Even if funds are sent from a subaddress, the account’s primary address may become marked as "used" after a transaction.

• This does not compromise privacy — it simply reflects internal wallet indexing.

• Using subaddresses for sending/receiving helps keep your financial metadata compartmentalised.

• New accounts can be used to segregate funds for donations, savings, or specific activities.

🏷️ Address Labelling

Create a new subaddress with a label:

address new <label>

• Example: address new exchange_withdrawal

View all addresses and their labels:

address all

Change an existing label:

address label <index> <new label>

• Index is the number listed with address all (e.g., 1).

🧷 Tag Management

Assign a tag to a specific account index:

account tag <tag_name> <account_index>

• Example: account tag personal 0

Set a description for a tag:

account tag_description <tag_name> <description>`

• Example: account tag_description personal "casual spending"
