Check your purchases history. Does the app show there? If it does, try signing out of the App Store/iTunes, restart, and then sign back in.


Purchase History Review.  


If necessary, contact iTunes Support. See the Apple Support articles below for contact information.

See What to do when the Mac App Store shows a different Apple ID for software updates https://www.macworld.com/article/3267709/mac-app-store-apple-id.html. This document refers to a prior owner, but is also applies to cases where a current owner's old Apple ID is the problem.

 

Basically, If an app is purchased/downloaded using one Apple ID, then you can't update it with another Apple ID. The app is inextricably linked to the first Apple ID. You'll have to delete it and repurchase/download it again with the second Apple ID.
