- Standard: A request for a one time item or service that doesn't pertain to any other types of requests.
- Blanket: A request to purchase an item or service on a larger scale to be paid over a period of time; for example, you could create a blanket request to purchase services from a lawn service whose services cost a fixed amount per year but are paid monthly.

- Warehouse: A request to purchase items from the district warehouse.
- Stock Warehouse: A request to purchase items in order to stock the warehouse.
- Utility: A request to purchase services from a utilities company, such as electricity.

- Capital Improvement: A request for projects that include new construction, renovations, repairs, and major maintenance to existing facilities, and other major landscape improvements.
