Foreign Tax Credit

I had a Foreign Tax Credit I could have taken and didn't realize it (2018).  This year (2019) I am taking this credit.  If I am reading the instructions correctly I can go back and amend last year's return with 2019's Foreign Tax Paid.  Can I amend the 2018 return with the figures from the 2018  1099 since I didn't put it in last year?  If so, then what do I do with the figures in the taxes paid for 2019?
