while offline i can create an account record,my question is where the record is stored since there is no connection between the application and the database in the offline mode?

Since the 2016 Spring release you can configure the data that is cached

The created data will be stored as cache and will create a 'Draft Record' on your tablet. See screenshot below. When you go back online you need to open the draft record and submit it.
Yes.
so the data created while offline is stored somewhere in the application in the mobile device waiting for the user to reconnect again so it will be send to the DataBase,right?
"Cache" is not an entity. Caching is a generic term in which data is stored in a temporary method.
I don't know exactly how this is done for the mobile app, but I suspect that when disconnected, the CRM app stores the data in a local data file in an XML or JSON format (others more knowledgeable than me could answer that). When the app reconnects, it takes the local data and then updates the CRM system. The article I referenced above also states that the data is NOT encrypted.
Hope this helps.
@Nick Doelman,so it is stored in the cached data?.is the cached data an entity?
Does this info help?
From: www.microsoft.com/.../work-offline-in-crm-for-phones-and-tablets.aspx
The records you’ve recently used are kept on your mobile device, and are also known as cached data. Cached data is specific to your device, so if you use both the phone and tablet apps, the cached data on each device will be different, depending on the records you’ve viewed on each one.
i am using Online CRM in my tablet.so when i create account record in the offline mode the record is stored in the account entity?
