Devil Query to RPT pilots

When instructed by ATC to cross a point at a certain time for sequencing, what is the process that is followed to achieve this? e.g. Is it just a matter of telling the FMS that you want to hit the point at a certain time and the autopilot handles the rest?

Subsequent question; where does the FMS obtain the grib wind data from for each flight?
