There are two questions here, I'm not sure what you want answered or how.  So, a couple of things to clarify so you can give us more information

• What do you mean by "search template"? 
  • A search in Jira finds issues based on criteria. 
  • People define a search and run it to get a list of current issues matching. 
  • They can save these as "filters", which can be run again, and used in many places (and will return all issues matching the question at the time they are used)
• Does this "saved filter" definition match what you mean by "search template"?
• Roles in Jira has a specific meaning
  • A role is a global object, available in all projects once created
  • Roles are things like Developer, Tester, User, Project Admin, Read only users, and so-on - defined real-world roles usually, although you can call them anything you want.
  • Roles are used in permissions, workflows, filtering and notifications mainly.  So you say things like "role of Developer can log work", "Testers get emails when X happens", etc
  • Each project can put its own users and groups in roles

And a last point - the trial versions of Atlassian software are not different software, they're a fully working service with all functions.  All the trial means is "it will stop working when the trial licence runs out".  No functions depend on it being a full licence over a trial.
