Move that template to a common shared folder of that project, on DataStage Server.

Is there any specific folder on server to place this template or simply place in project folder?
Do i need to place in shared folder evrytime i create a template.?

Templates are not jobs, they're templates. They don't reside in DataStage, they reside on a users client PC. This is why I don't recommend using this feature. One option is a Windoze network folder that everyone specifies to use to hold templates.

From
Designer Guide section 8-3
Administrating Templates
To delete a template, start the Job-From-Template Assistant and select
the template. Click the Delete button. Use the same procedure to
select and delete empty categories.
The Assistant stores all the templates you create in the directory you
specified during your installation of DataStage. You browse this
directory when you create a new job from a template. Typically, all the
developers using the Designer save their templates in this single
directory.
After installation, no dialog is available for changing the template
directory. You can, however change the registry entry for the template
directory. The default registry value is:
[HKLM/SOFTWARE/Ascential Software/DataStage Client/currentVersion/
Intelligent Assistant/Templates]
