To have the XY corner as your fixture plate and the Z zero as the top, here's what you need to do:
Create a sketch on the top of your part
Draw a point at the corner of the fixture plate, but at the height of your part
Select that point in your "Setup".
And yes, you certainly can set the Z zero as top of your Fixture plate, but seriously; do yourself a favor: Choose a spot and stick with it. If you are constantly changing that Z zero point, one day, it will bite you in the backside. Nothing like watching a shell mill shear right off.....
