You need to add the default value to the arguments for acf_render_field_setting(), and I don’t know why you’re setting the value here.

function render_field($field)
        {
            $select_options = [
                CUSTOMER::REPORT_A => 'A Rapport',
                CUSTOMER::REPORT_B => 'B Rapport'
            ];

            acf_render_field_setting($field, [
                'key'     => $field['key'],
                'type'    => 'select',
                'name'    => $field['name'],
                'choices' => $select_options,
                'default_value' => 'the default'
            ]);
        }

If your select field allows only 1 selection then default_value it will be a string. If the field allows multiple selections then it will be an array of strings.
