Removing a program manager’s role

If a program manager has left your organisation, or the role is being transferred to another staff member, it’s important to remove the program manager role from that user as soon as possible. Program managers have full access to the program’s configuration, entries, and judging data, so access should be limited to authorised staff only.
Remove the program manager role
In the Manage workspace, go to Users
Locate the user you want to update
Click the user’s name to open their profile
Under 'Account roles', deselect Program manager
(Optional) If the user should still be able to create and submit entries, select Entrant
Click Save

Program managers have access to all entries, judging data, and settings in Award Force.
Removing the program manager role does not delete the user.
Users can hold multiple roles, so removing one role does not affect others unless deselected.
Only the account owner can add or remove program managers and process permanent deletions.
