Also don't be surprised if you can't update your new passport info on the global entry site right away. From what I've researched it can take 30 to 45 days before it will recognize your new passport number. It's been about 30 days since I got my new passport and I haven't been able to update yet. From what I've read your new passport will still work for GE even if not yet updated on their web site.
Please refer to this thread:
Cannot update passport / driver license in TTP website
My 2 cents: I stopped by the enrollment center near LAX and they did update the document info right away when TTP wouldn't allow it online. They also did state that you can go to the "Global Entry enrollment on arrival" line on an international arrival if you need a document updated to use the kiosks, they may manually process you for entry but then the document is updated that way too for future use.
