I had Precheck first before I applied for Global Entry. The impact it'll have is that you'll double pay for the two programs, and you'll end up with two different KTNs. Given how long it takes for Global Entry interviews at the moment, I'm sure some people are getting Precheck in the short run because it's so much quicker while they wait for their Global Entry appointment.

In short: don't sweat it. :-)
