Why does supply planning maintain safety stock when it is not required ?

Summary:

We have safety stock planned for an Item as:

Days of Cover - 90 and Day of cover demand period as -90

This would simply mean that safety stock it to be maintained when there is demand (in our case 90 days in the future)

Please see attached screenshot. There is no demand from 01/02/27. Still there is PAB of 100,000 seen. In essence the system seems to be maintaining a safety stock of 100,000 when there is no demand and no safety stock required.

What is the logic behind this ?
