I am not sure what you are trying to say, regardless of whether its domestic or international an "economy" fare will book into a certain fare class, and that determines the SC's:

BHK classes internationally are discount classes, while domestically they are full SCs, but YBHK on a QF flight number operated by JQ are full Y.

Different markets book into different fare codes despite being called the same fare, for instance AKL-SYD fully flexible is discount, but if you book SYD-AKL its full Y, ex NZ you also get business saver fares as well.
