problem resolution
Working things out
Problem resolution is the process of identifying, addressing, and solving problems—typically in business, technical, or customer service contexts.
It emphasizes not just fixing immediate issues but reaching a satisfactory conclusion: The help desk handles problem resolution for software bugs.
The term sounds more formal than "problem-solving" and often appears in corporate procedures and job descriptions.
