That depends on the fields in question. It will not overwrite installed dates, or licenses, and many other fields. It will overwrite the fields collected for a given piece of software on a given computer. You can see the data collected after using SAT, and before you read the data in, by using the View Programs menu item on the Software Audit Tool menu. In the majority of instances, there will not be any conflicts.
