power maintaining pin is reset after software reset

hello Nordic

i am working with nrf52832, sdk 16.0, s132v7.0.1

the device is suppose to be powered on by a press button that is held for a few seconds. there are 2 lines to the battery one is set by the power button and the other is held by the power maintaining pin, if the button was not pressed long enough then the pin will not be set and once the button is released there will be no more power for the system. so far so good. 

when i do a software reseat, as i read here in the forum,  all pins are released from software previous configuration so if i reset from the software and the button is not pressed the power to the system is cut. 

there is no logic to set that pin to be connected to the battery at all time and that the software will disconnect it the button was not pressed for long enough time cause then the system is actually always connected to the battery ad will never shut down 

is there a way, still ,to keep the last configuration of a pin after resetting (same question for bootloading procedure)

if there is another solution for this issue i would be happy to read as well 

best regards

Ziv
