Hello,
Yes, it is covered in the SAM Fundamentals course and specifically within the "Personas" section of the content. I'd recommend you review that and you'll see the answer there. This is a very fundamental question, so it was definitely covered. Please study your fundamentals and implementation course material for assistance.
Please consider marking my reply as Helpful and/or Accept Solution, if applicable. Thanks!

Hi Allen,
thanks for the details, but after having complete the course, I could not find it. In case this is explained as you mention, can you please provide me with the link?
I facilitate the training course I completed: https://nowlearning.servicenow.com/lxp?id=learning_course&course_id=b6539a58db7ec190ad1cf9c8f496192f

Hi Pastrana,
The 'SAM Manager' is responsible for controlling the day-to-day activities and ensuring the overall quality of software asset data

The question of @pastrana is very relevant. The fundamentals describe the personas (which includes SAM Manager) but does not describe which SAM role each persona gets. In the fundamentals Quiz (Introduction to Software Asset Management: Knowledge Check (Vancouver)) there is the following question:
If you include "SAM Manager" as an answer the test is failed. I don't understand why the SAM Process Owner would get sam_user as primary role but not the SAM Manager.
I couldn't find anything in the doc or training that would explain the rationale behind that.
