Select the appropriate category from the menu. Then the attribute panel for the map item opens:
Click Change category to change the category of the item you are adding or editing as needed:
Attribution panels include:
- YME data block (for all item types): placement, type, name.
- YBD data block (for organizations): status, working hours, website, email, phone number. Varies depending on item type.
When you create a new item, you should specify its location and fill in the fields of the YME block.
When you fill in Yandex Business Directory fields, the suggested edits are reviewed by the Yandex Business Directory moderation team. You can see an edit's review status in the edits list (see section 2.10.10. Notifying authors).
Techniques for adding attributes to “Locations” are similar to the techniques for adding attributes to all items on YME.

3.6.2.1.2. Organizations in the Yandex Business Directory
The Organization's entry in the Yandex Business Directory attribute is needed to link the organization's point on the map
with the organization's entry in the Yandex Business Directory.When you fill out the field, the organization list appears. The list shows all the organizations 400 meters away from the created point that have the same type and a Yandex Business Directory entry:
If the organization you're looking for is not in the list, enter its name in the Name field (see below for more information).
3.6.2.1.3. Business category
The Category attribute lets you provide a more detailed description of what business an organization is involved in. This connects the organization's line of business with the category in Yandex Business Directory.To enter a category, click on the Category field and select the appropriate value from the drop-down list.
You must indicate the organization's category.
If the organization's line of business fits into several categories, select the one that matches their main business. For instance, if a clothing store also sells some shoes on the side, their main category should still be “clothing store”.
If you can't determine what an organization's main line of business is, try getting as close as possible and entering one of two suitable categories.
For more information about categories, see the Appendix Location and organization classification.
3.6.2.1.4. Name
- 3.6.2.1.4.1 Rules for choosing names
-
Items are named in accordance with the general rules (see 3.1.3. Map item naming rules).
- 3.6.2.1.4.2. Name formatting
-
Rules and examples of entering names:
- Official name — required for all items (except for items belonging to the “Yard and park infrastructure” type). Here is what should be specified:
- — Only the item's proper name can determine the category of an item or a place (as long the name doesn't include the category and the category doesn't make specific elaborations like “indian cuisine restaurant”).
For such cases, it's preferred you enter the “Also known as, historical” name variation, which is defined in the [the item's type + proper name] format.
See examples 1, 4, and 12.
- Only the item's proper name if the item has a number or ID in addition to its proper name (applies to items of the following types: Food, Auto, Trade, Finance, Yard and park infrastructure, Sports, as well as the Drug store and Optician subtypes). In this case, you can specify the item's name, number, and type as a name of the “Also known as, historical” type.
See example 2.
— The item's proper name and item type in cases when the item's proper name grammatically overlaps with the item type.
See example 3.
The item's proper name, number (or ID), and item type if the item has a number or ID in addition to its proper name (applies to items of the following types: Education and research, Government, Religion, Culture and recreation, Businesses and services, Healthcare, but doesn't include the Drug store and Optician subtypes).
See examples 25 and 26.
- If an item doesn't have a proper name, only the “item type” is specified (except for items belonging to the Yard and park infrastructure type).
See examples in Item and organization names (standard names of map items that have no proper names, depending on the category).
- If an object belongs to the “Yard and park infrastructure” type and doesn't have a name, only specify its official name if it elaborates on the item's function. For example, Volleyball court, Basketball court. Don't set an official name for such an item if it doesn't elaborate on its function. For example, the official name can't be Sports ground, Playground, Dumpsters.
If some of the data pertaining to a “Finance” organization's item type (such as department, branch, numbered or unnumbered operational cash registers, etc.) doesn't fit its category, it can be clarified in the organization's official name. The item's proper name always comes before its official name. The clarifications are written last, separated by a comma.
See examples 7, 8, 9.
If a bank has both a full name and an abbreviation/portmanteau, the official name uses the full version, while the caption uses the shortened version.
See examples 10 and 11.
- Attractions of architectural value can display their year(s) of construction. If a century is specified in the attraction's name, it can be substituted with the years of construction.
Any additional information specified for items with proper names should come after a comma. Years and centuries use arabic numbers. If there are more than two construction dates, please only specify the two oldest ones.
See examples 28 and 29.
- For caption on map — must be specified if it's different from the official name. If the names are the same, specifying it is not mandatory, but still preferrable.
The name should contain:
- Only the item's proper name in cases when the item's proper name doesn't grammatically overlap with the item type.
See examples 1, 2, 7, 8, 9.
Only the item's proper name if the item has a number or ID in addition to its proper name (applies to items of the following types: Food, Auto, Trade, Finance, Yard and park infrastructure, Sports, as well as the Drug store and Optician subtypes).
See example 2.
- — The item's proper name and item type in cases when the item's proper name grammatically overlaps with the item type.
See example 3.
The item's proper name, number (or ID), and item type if the item has a number or ID in addition to its proper name (applies to items of the following types: Education and research, Government, Religion, Culture and recreation, Businesses and services, Healthcare, but doesn't include the Drug store and Optician subtypes).
See examples 25 and 26.
Type and number (ID) if the item only has a type and ID.
See example 27.
— Only the item type for cases when the item doesn't have a proper name and the item type doesn't match the category. It doesn't need the For caption on map name if the item type matches the category.
See examples 5 and 6.
If a bank has both a full name and an abbreviation/portmanteau, the caption uses the shortened version.
See examples 10 and 11.
If a government, educational, cultural, or medical facility does not have its own name or number, the caption should specify the locality (urban or rural) it belongs to.
See examples 13, 14, 15.
If in one territory an organization that is divided into several subsidiaries (for example, a University and its buildings/departments/dorms, a factory and its departments/buildings, a hospital and its departments/buildings, and so on), the names of the subsidiaries are written as:
official: name of the parent organization, name of the child organization;
for signature: the name of the child organization.
See examples 16, 17, 18.
If the subsidiary is located on different territories, the name of the parent organization is saved in the name for the signature.
See example 19.
If a large parent company has independent branches with their own names (e.g. city-level universities that are branches of a federal university, or local hospitals subordinate to a regional hospital), then the names of those branches should be specified in the following manner:
- Official name: name of the parent organization, name of the subordinate organization
- For caption on map: name of the subordinate organization.
See example 20.
If several organizations share the same name, territory, and subcategory (e.g. Factories and industrial enterprises), please include their abbreviated item type in the official name.
See examples 21, 22, 23, 24.
- If the years/centuries of construction are specified in the proper name for an attraction of architectural value, the attraction's caption name should be written as follows:
- If the item has a proper name, then it should be the same as a caption name.
- If the item doesn't have a proper name, then the caption name should be shortened and include the item's construction period taken from the proper name.
