Apple ID forgotten

How can I correct my critical Apple ID information if when I set up my iPhone, I must have set it up incorrectly and also can’t remember my correct information after resetting my phone so created a different Apple ID. Is that an incorrect move?

You should only use one Apple ID and stick with it since anything you buy with it cannot be transferred to a different account. How you "correct" information depends upon what it was you need to change.
