templates part solidworks - loss of input in functions

Good morning to all

I have a problem... I'm trying to use templates in an advanced way,
what I would like to do is create a template file ( .prtdot) that in addition to containing the settings of the part also contains the basic functions of the object to be created,
in this link http://www.solidsmack.com/cad/how-to-use-solidworks-templates-to-speed-design/ the procedure is described in great line (it is in English but I think it is not a problem).
This is an interesting feature that would avoid me losing a lot of time, as I often find myself performing a multitude of sheets, bound to a two-dimensional skeleton (in practice a sketch drawn in a file together) , folded in the same way and differing between them only for height or width.
I try to describe in words the passages I follow:
1- I create a new part
2- I create a sketch in the front floor and design an untied rectangle (completely blue)
3- I perform a function of "basic flux" , my beautiful rectangular flat sheet appears
4- I perform a function of "flange of the edge" on all 4 edges (clicking on it) with length 20mm .... ok .... appears my beautiful "cover of shoes boxes" in sheet
5- Except the .sldprt file with a random name: test1.sldprt
6- Now save the .prtdot template with another name: sheet1.prtdot
7- I close everything
8- I create a new part choosing as a sheet template1.prtdot, at the opening of the file should appear a "disguised shoe cover" in sheet metal.... instead a flat sheet appears, the function of "flangy of the edge" has a conflict! (red bottle with white crucifix)
9- within the function with the conflict and I know that, in the flange parameters, the 4 edges I had clicked are not.... They were lost.

Where's the mistake?
I tried to do the same using only extrusion functions, without using "lamiera" commands, but the problem persists
 
to me it worked as expected, following your workflow. see the attached file.
Meanwhile... thank you for the answer

I opened your attached template ... it actually works, no conflict, the 4 folds did not get lost.

I have to have some wrong setting in system options, or something I ignore

or maybe your version has a bug, which is always possible.

The file I sent you was done with 2012.
