The online donation form doesn't allow for organization names, so people will enter organization names in the first and/or last names fields and Civi creates individual records for them. There is currently no option to then change the record type to organization. Having organizations in Civi as individuals makes them difficult to search and the records difficult to keep clean. Example: CID 13115753
Could we please look into a way to change the record type once the record has been created?

@LeanneS @NNichols @CaitVirtue you should now see an option to change contact type now in Civi.
Note that I gave the roles fr-tech & CiviCRM Admin permission to change contact type. So @MBeat33 will see it but some of his staff & engage staff may not
