There's an option for this when you edit the time field.

You can of course also write code that copies the values from the global table to the source. For this the sources should have different names, so you can differentiate between them more easily.

Table sourceTable = Table(Model.find("Tools/ProcessFlow/ProcessFlow/Source>variables/arrivals"));
Table globalTable = Table("GlobalTable1");
sourceTable.setSize(globalTable.numRows, sourceTable.numCols);
for(int row = 1; row <= globalTable.numRows; row++)
{
    sourceTable[row][1] = globalTable[row][1];
}

Or, as a quick workaround, you can set the sources to create as many tokens are there are rows immediately and just delay the tokens by the respective amount of time.
