How can I change the sprint info for an already completed sprint for tickets moved between projects?

How can I change the sprint info for an already completed sprint to remove/change the old project's sprint info for tickets moved from one project to another?

For example:

I move a ticket(s) from project A to project B.

The moved ticket's sprint field still contains the sprint name from project A.

The sprint field in project B never gets changed to a project B sprint name.

Project B's sprint with the moved ticket(s) is completed.

When accessing the Velocity Report for project B, it shows the sprint from project A in the report, since the sprint name wasn't changed when the ticket(s) was moved over.

To remove an issue from a closed sprint and add it to another closed sprint you will have to reopen the closed sprints, make the change and then close the sprint again. That will change the end date of the sprints.

You would have to remove the sprint from the sprint field on all the issues that were moved from project A to project B in order to clean it up. And I would recommend that you set up an automation that clears out the field going forward when moving an issue between projects.

Create a global automation that triggers on Issue moved and then use the Edit issue component to clear out the sprint field. In it's simplicity it would look like this:
