How to migrate system user and all its reative mappings and configs in AEM from dev to qa environment? (created through crx/explorer  not through repoinit)

Migrate from which version to which one? repo init is the recommended way to handle system users going forward. Follow the below links to understand more.

From local to dev environment, aem 6.4

As per the documentation, AEM 6.3 and greater is recommended to use repo init implementation for handling system user/ACLs. https://adobe-consulting-services.github.io/acs-aem-commons/features/ensure-service-users/index.html

I would recommend using:

1. Manual ACL packaging from dev to qa
2. ACS common utility for ACL package - https://adobe-consulting-services.github.io/acs-aem-commons/features/packagers/acl-packager/index.ht... 
3. Netcentric ACL Tool - https://github.com/Netcentric/accesscontroltool
