Have a look at this:

Is the UPN the same on-prem and in AAD/O365?

No the UPN's are all set to the local domain i.e. %USERNAME%.DOMAIN.LOCAL

    If you don't want to have new/duplicate users, this would be the first thing you need to adjust prior to a migration.

      So in order to test I am going to filter out all OU's except a test OU. 

       

      Am I right in saying that so long as the UPN and ProxyAddress match that of the O365 object then the accounts will be merged?

       

      People have mentioned one-way sync, how and where can I check that my connection is in fact one-way only?

        Hello Paul, 

        • Please note that incase you have an account on AD as well as on office365, then you may go for Hard match using the below: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/praveenkumar/2014/08/10/how-to-do-hard-match-part-2/
        • Other AD users and groups will be synced to Office365 tenant.

        Let me know if you still have any queries.
