(I never noticed that there is something as "payment group" I must admit.)
Copy/Paste from 4.6 help text:
In Customizing for the Payment Medium Format, choose Adjust Payment Medium
Format and determine the level of detail. The level of detail governs how payment media are output in payment groups. In selection variant maintenance, the system displays all defined payment groups that each require assignment of one selection variant.
At least 1 variant is defined in each payment group for each payment medium format. It is important to assign a selection variant to each group to ensure that no payment is forgotten.
To assign a selection variant, in Customizing for Financial Accounting, choose Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable Business Transactions Outgoing Payments Automatic Outgoing Payments Payment Media Make Settings for Payment Medium Formats from Payment Medium Workbench Create/Assign Selection Variants.
On the left side of the screen, select the payment medium format to which you want to assign a variant. The system displays the format on the right side of the screen. When you place the cursor over a selection variant field and press F4 the system displays possible variants. Choose the variant you require.
Carry out assignment for each individual group level.
Save assignment of the selection variants.
Creating selection variants
To create a selection variant, in Customizing for Financial Accounting, choose Accounts
Receivable and Accounts Payable / Business Transactions / Outgoing Payments /
Automatic Outgoing Payments / Payment Media / Make Settings for Payment Medium
Formats from Payment Medium Workbench / Create/Assign Selection Variants.
On the left side of the screen, select the payment medium format for which you want to create a variant. The system displays the format on the right side of the screen.
Place the cursor over a selection variant field, enter a name for a new variant, and press continue.
The system displays a dialog box where you confirm variant creation.

The system displays a dialog box where you confirm variant creation.
Selection Variants
The system displays the selection screen of the generic payment medium program
SAPFPAYM.
Here, you enter the required selection criteria, then you maintain the attributes before saving the variant.
Choose Back to return to selection variant maintenance for the payment medium formats.
Save assignment of the selection variants.
If you want to work with Dynamic selections you can enter several variants per group
using the procedure described above (Variant Enter further variants). You should
only use Dynamic selections to define selection variants where no alternative exists.
After this, you need to ensure that no payment order has been carried out in
duplicate and that only 1 payment medium has been created for each order.
You can increase the level of detail in Customizing (Adjust Payment Medium Format)
as an alternative to Dynamic selections.
Transporting selection variants
In selection variant maintenance for payment medium creation, it is possible to branch to transport of the settings made and the selection variants for payment medium creation themselves.
To carry out the transport, in Customizing for Financial Accounting, choose Accounts
Receivable and Accounts Payable / Business Transactions / Outgoing Payments /
Automatic Outgoing Payments / Payment Media / Make Settings for Payment Medium
Formats from Payment Medium Workbench / Create/Assign Selection Variants.
To transport the selection variants, choose Transport variants to all formats.
To transport selection variant assignment, choose Transport settings to all formats. You can decide whether you transport the currently selected format or whether you transport all formats.
Result
The payment program starts payment medium creation using each selection variant entered.
P.S. If you are configuring a french payment method, do you use a French alternative chart of account and an operational one like INT or IKR?
