All the data will be lost because "_AET" in PeopleSoft 8 is used as a

temporary table.

In PS Query you will get a runtime error because of the naming standard "_AET"
the client chose to use.

It will not cause a problem

Now PeopleSoft uses the naming standard "_AET" for Application Engine Tables,
so there may be a problem with two tables being named the same. (*)
