Is it possible to add user tables into <organization_name>_MSCRM database.
I want to store some information to these tables.
My concern is will it affect/create problem to my MS CRM system?

It is not supported to do that. The user tables appear in database
when we create custom entities with the extension of New (or what is
configured by the user).
You need to choose some other way.

What can happen if I add a table named 'duplicates'? Will the CRM application
stop working or else?

I wouldn't think anything if CRM's native code isn't perrforming
queries against this table anyway. Until you started writing code to
perform queries on your new table, (joining etc...) then maybe you
would encounter some problems.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

I am going to use these tables from a pre-callout only to store information.
These tables will have no related to any existing tables in MSCRM database.
Before creating tables I want to make sure that these would not create any
problems in the crm system.
Is it like MSCRM or Metabase database stores any information regarding how
many tables are there in MSCRM database. If no then I think I can create
these tables. What you guys suggest?

Hi,
I would strongly suggest you to create a new database on the same server and
use it to store the data.
Shouldn't be problem, and is the supported way of achieving your goal.
The rule of the thumb with Microsoft CRM: stick to the supported way as much
as possible.

Hello,
I strongly agree with Jevgenij. Problems could occur when you need to
upgrade to a new version or need to perform official microsoft updates to
your mscrm database.
