What is a General Manager on Cakewalk?

A General Manager on Cakewalk:

• Sits at the top of your organization’s hierarchy and does not have a manager assigned. Typically, C-level execs are assigned as General Managers.

• Their own requests skip manager-approval steps. Any manager approval in the flow is auto-approved.

• They have full visibility and the broadest permissions across users, apps, and reviews, including:

  – Submit and approve requests

  – Onboard and offboard users

  – Manage user groups and app access

  – Edit app metadata and owners

  – Create and complete access reviews

  – Integrate HRIS/IdP and set up auto-provisioning

  – Create custom policies and layouts

  – Create API keys and webhooks

Note: This role exceeds a typical team manager’s scope. It is not limited to just your direct team.
