Z was the old code for upgraded seats, now I think it is paid. Did you buy a business class ticket or did you upgrade a coach ticket with miles or a certificate or something?

The only reason this will matter at all to you is in the event of irops. If there is an issue and its an upgraded ticket, they COULD try to put you in coach (and refund miles or whatever) if BE is sold out. This is unlikely, as they would still try to rebook you in BE in all cases if its available.
