Identifying Apps purchased with another Apple ID on different Apple ID host device.

I purchased a new Ipad. Did side by side Ipad Transfer. As part of start up process I had to enter a password for my sons Apple ID to progress. I assume this relates to historical App purchases he made on my device. (Son now grown up with own devices and Apple ID, same one).

I seek to identify what apps on my Ipad have been purchased using his Apple ID so I can delete/ un install them. If I still want the app I can set up again with my own Apple ID. I seek to resolve this to maintain the privacy and integrity of my adult son’s Apple ID.

Any assistance appreciated.
