If you were to set up any item with a safety stock it appears that once any demand is entered that would drop your on hand below the safety stock, MRP attempts to immediately replenish based on the manufacturing or purchase lead time regardless of whether or not the demand is a date further beyond either of those dates. Is there a setting available that would only create the supply to replenish safety stock on or after the date of your projected on hand dipping below your prescribed safety stock?

Not really, that is essentially what will happen when demand is added into the system. Safety Stock won’t drive the replenishment on its own, but will then become the priority when demand is added to bring it in at the earliest possible date irrespective of the new demand requirement.
