Facility ships off stuff reportedly with bits unfinished (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
loose ends
'bits unfinished' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'facility ships off stuff reportedly' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'facility' could be 'loo' (loo is a kind of facility) and 'loo' is found within the answer.
'reportedly' could be 'e' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'e' is located in the answer.
'ships' could be 'sends' ('send' can be a synonym of 'ship') and 'sends' is found in the leftover letters.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'with' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for loose ends that I've seen before include "details yet to be explained" , "items to be settled" , "Unfinished business" .)
