I don't know how your app pulls the users in, ask the vendor.
Each user will have a SID and a GUID. The SID is fixed to the user unless the user is moved to another domain. The GUID is fixed for every object in the forest.

I use a software that imports user accounts from a domain controller. But it does not import groups. I create groups in this software and move the active directory users into different groups. But when I re-import the users, instead of simply importing the new users, it re-imports all users. My questions is how does this software pull the user account from a domain controller and does each user account on a DC have a UID? Maybe I can request the software developer to check the UID on the DC and not import the users that are already present in my software..
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank You,
