How can I rearrange equations to general form?

I have simplifyed example of my problem:
syms x y z
eqn1=x+y+5==-z
Matlab gives me answer (as it should)
eqn1=x+y+5==-z
But is there a command to rearrange the equation to either
eqn1=x+y+z+5=0
or
eqn1=x+y+z=-5
Thank you for your help.

Return all equivalent results with higher number of simplication steps
syms x y z
eqn1=x+y+5==-z
out=simplify(eqn1,'All',true,'Steps',4)

Nothing stops you from doing it yourself. For example, I might do:
eqn1 = eqn1 + z
Or, you can even use isolate.
eqn1 = isolate(eqn1,x+y+z)
Personally, I never understand these questions, though we see them often. :) All that has changed is where a term falls. It is still the same equation. A rose by any other name...
