UserGuid is the index column and contains the 16-byte GUID of the Active Directory object. The schema for the AbUserEntry table uses two columns, UserGuid and UserData. User Replicator writes the Active Directory Domain Services attributes for each user, contact, and group into the AbUserEntry table in the database and the Address Book Server syncs the user data from the database into files in the Address Book Server file store and into the Address Book database RTCab.

The Address Book Server uses data provided by User Replicator to update the information that it initially obtains from the global address list (GAL). You should review your normalization rules to ensure that either they are not looking for these non-mandatory characters, or that the rule can fail gracefully and continue in the event that the character is not present where the rule anticipates it will be.

Because the white space and non-mandatory characters are removed prior to the normalization rules, if your regex expression is specifically looking for a dash or other character that was removed, your normalization rule might fail. The normalization rules that were used in previous versions may not work properly without some adjustments.

When a phone number is used from the address book and the normalization rule is applied, clients, such as Lync Phone Edition and Lync Mobile, can use these normalized numbers. To use phone numbers that are unstructured or inconsistently formatted, Lync Server relies on the Address Book Server to preprocess phone numbers before they are handed off to the normalization rules. Lync Server requires standardized RFC 3966/E.164 phone numbers. Address Book Server Phone Number Normalization
