Why is My Zone Name the Same as My Billing Name?

Why is my Zone name the same as my billing name?

Are you trying to name your Zone something else, but when you do, does it populate the name of the Company Name in the Billing section of your organization? 

Answer

Note: When you change the Company Name in the Billing section of your organization it will change the name of the Zone as a whole. Similarly, if you change the name of the Zone in the Zone Management section, it will update the Company Name as well. These are not mutually exclusive and will always match each other.

Scenario

You have two zones, one is named "Workstations" and the other is named "Servers". You're in the "Servers" zone, and decide to update the Company Name in the Billing section to something like "Company Name 123". The name of the zone will also be updated to "Company Name 123", thus losing the "Servers" name (and possibly making things confusing). 

Generally, Automox recommends creating another zone, if you'd like to have one parent zone, and two other zones like "Servers" and "Workstations".
