By "template" do you perhaps mean "stylesheet"?

If you transform the same document twice with different stylesheets, or 
even with the same stylesheet, there is no guarantee you will get the 
same results back from generate-id(). They may be closely related (for 
example Saxon's implementation of generate-id() concatenates a document 
number with a node number; the node number will be the same in different 
transformations, while the document number may be different) - but there 
are no guarantees.
