App Store Updates issue

How can I change the Apple ID for updating apps? My iPad has been showing I need to log in with an older/ non-functioning ID.

iPad, iOS 12

A request for another Apple ID password is often caused by updates to apps/purchases that were made when using the other ID. Those purchases are tied to the other ID and can't be transferred. One option is to delete the apps/purchases made by the other ID and download them using the new ID if desired. If necessary, check your purchases history to see which apps/purchases weren’t made by the current ID.
