Sheet metal: Corner relief?

Hi all, I am trying to implement the design rules of our local sheet metal manufacturer.
I have no clue how to create the corner reliefs as shown here: https://blexon.com/hilfe/konstruktionstipps/#keineEckfreistiche
Best I could manage is attached image. Any ideas?
Also, what do the bend relief options in the flange-advanced tab do? They don't seem to have any effect and the help function has no comment either.

Thanks, Martin

Nice - but that's kind of a workaround?
Just wondering that none of the many options of the flange feature can't do that!
Thanks Stefan!

The best way to see what an option will do is to select it and view the results.
When you select the Miter option and select either Corner Relief or Corner Open you will get the result similar to what is shown on the link provided. Since there was no size given I think the option indicated in this image should work for you.

And here is what the flat looks like:
