2 issues when adding subdomains using new "Domain" interface in cPanel

1) The new subdomains are listed as parked domains in WHM, not as subdomains. SO the subdomains created before the new Domain interface are listed as subdomains, but the new ones as parked domains ...


2) When adding a subdomain there is a new DNS Zone created instead of just a new line for the new subdomain
So adding sub1.domain.com, sub2.domain.com, sub3.domain.com, will each create new DNS Zones insted of adding only 3 lines in the DNS Zone for domain.com

How can we change this behaviour?
Do not want lots of different DNS Zone's created and having to update a number of them. Only want one for each domain.

Solved.
The problem is that if you create a subdomain and check "Share document root (/home/domaincom/public_html) with “domain.com”. " it will create it as a parked domain

If I just let it create it with the suggested path or add another path, it is created as subdomain and I can go in after and delete the path if I want it to point to the same document root
