A Table or an Entity is used to model and manage business data in CRM. Contacts, Cases, Accounts, Leads, Opportunities, Activities etc. are all Tables which hold data records.
Conceptually, a CRM Table is equivalent to a database table. For example, Contact Table would hold contact records, Case Table would hold cases records and so on.
There are three types of tables that you are typically going to encounter in a CRM implementation.
The first type of table is known as System Tables and are exist when CRM is deployed. These tables are also known as OOB(out of the box) tables. For example, Account and Contact.
System Tables can be modified but can not be deleted. For instance, suppose you want to store information of employees in your company. For this you will be storing the customer table as employee after modifying it.
Second type of table is known as custom table. Consider a scenario where you want to store books data. So in this case you need to create custom table.
Custom table can be modified and can be deleted.
Third type table is known as Activity table which are there to kind of support some of the other tables in the application. Example of activity table in CRM would be, like your phone call activity or your email activity or your appointment. These activities can be attached to Microsoft Dynamics CRM rows(formerly known as records).
