Rating Groups (RGs), SP IDs, etc.. are configured with the PGW that supports an internal SASN (PISC / DPI).
PGW will use Gy to a 3GPP OCS (e.g. Ericsson Charging_System 5.x, CS17, etc..) so that the session (e.g. VoLTE / viLTE / etc..) can be rated and charged using the Rating Engine and the assigned Resources (Dedicated Accounts, Composite Accounts, Offers, etc..).
Gy will use Diameter Credit Control Requests / Answers (CCR/CCAs) to the 3GPP OCS platform.
Configuration with the DPI / PCEF,
3GPP OCS and PCRF will be vendor specific.
As a suggestion I would use the different IP Flows (SDF-Service Data Flows) with a QCI. PCC (OCS/PCRF using the Sy) will then Rate and charge the session using Diameter Gy.
At the Core Network layer the Rating Group – RG – is used to group a set of Services. The Service Identifier – SI – will be used by OCS / PCRF to Rate and Charge for the ongoing session.
As you will have MSCC you will need the Diameter Gy interface.
