Set the status of the radiator valve to off when reaching temperature.
Options
Currently if i set the smart radiator valve X on 22°C, and reach the desirable temperature, the valve is closing but the status of the valve is not off but 22°C because that's the desired temperature. It will be nice to be off so I can turn off my distribution pump via smart plug, oparated with google home in combination with Tado°.(NL, District heating)

Would be better to automate by following the call for heat.

Potato-potato, this will require anyway additional device to control the pump or zone valve. In that case, smart plug by receiving the change of state will do the trick. In the end when valve is closing for any reason needs to change status.
Take a look at the following automation script. That way i am able to turn on the pump when any of the valves is requesting heat. But when the desired temp is reached the state of the valve is not changing, so pump cannot stop until the state of the valve is off.

# This script controls the heat pump based on the demand for heat from smart radiators.
# It ensures the heat pump turns on if either radiator requests heat and turns off only when both stop requesting heat.

My current solution is to work with tado heating schedules, so when no request for heating, pump is closing too.0
