We should also note that this reference book is closely linked with the [“Offices reference book”](https://workpan.com/en/doc/spravochnik-ofisov/).

#### A new city can be added as follows:

1.  Click the “Add” button.
2.  Once you are taken to the corresponding section, you will be asked to fill in a form.
3.  After entering the city name, save the value. The new city will be added.

#### To switch some cities off temporarily:

1.  Select the entry you need to switch off.
2.  With the mouse, drag the toggle to the left until the label “Active” changes to “Disabled”. The toggle colour changes from green to grey. Dragging it back to the right activates the disabled entry again.

**Attention:** when a city is disabled in the reference book, all [“Offices”](https://workpan.com/en/doc/spravochnik-ofisov/) linked to that city are disabled as well.
