Justin is correct. Unfortunately, my colleague Rhett, is not. This behavior is very tightly controlled because there are limitations about where the Manager must be in the BU structure, in relation to the User. This has absolutely nothing
to do with self-referential relationships or circular references. Additionally, I most certainly
can add a reference from System User to System User.
The Manager relationship is generally only useful for out-of-the-box reports, and little else. It does not confer any security privileges (although it may have, prior to CRM 3.0, as many of these features were designed and implemented once, and often
never updated or revisited), and I haven't found another out-of-box entity or process that depends on it. You'd be well within your rights to consider replacing it with a new relationship that behaves the way you wish.
