The most common approach for defining accounts and
their initial group memberships is to write a script, likely
that reads a file with the specifics for each new account.
You may want to visit the Technet Script Center where
there are examples of the different parts of such a script.

Alternatively you could use the prebuilt ldap based tools
to load from a csv file, or the prebuilt scripts - but as you
perhaps need something that handles group memberships
case by case per user you may be best off with a custom
script.
