How to prevent Project closure even after all the project tasks are closed

[skumar_srbh]

As we know that once all the project tasks are closed, project will be automatically closed (state changes to closed complete). However, I have a scenario where a PMO team is expected to close the project by themselves (once all the tasks and associated work is done), so I wanted to prevent this automatic closure; Can see many questions on community on this topic..  but did not find viable solution. Please suggest.

Thanks in advance

This is a workaround as I am not with PDI but it goes like: you can create a business rule on project task when it is closed set state on project as open if you see it as closed.

Or you can check for any existing BR that is closing projects upon closure of respective tasks.
