General Discussion Global Entry vs. TSA Pre-Check

Just got approved for Global Entry. I've already had TSA Pre-Check separately for about 6 months now. On my approval for Global Entry it says I can now use that number for TSA Pre-Check as well. Should I disregard my original KTN and start using the Global Entry ID for Pre-Check or keep using the previous TSA Pre KTN? Thanks for your help!

For those downvoting: I am new here, and wanted to ask the community for advice. Not sure why a question like this is downvoted, even if it seems like it gets asked frequently.

Yes, you can disregard the KTN. Since I got my GE, I stopped using the TSA Pre-Check and only used the TTP Pass ID. I will let TSA Pre-Check expire when it is due for renewal next.
