Bank instruction, putting up with tidiness (8,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

standing order

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'bank instruction' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?

'up with tidiness' is the wordplay.
'up' becomes 'standing' (I've seen this before).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'tidiness' becomes 'order' (I've seen this before).
'standing'+'order'='STANDING ORDER'

'putting' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for standing order that I've seen before include "Instruction for bank to make regular payments" , "gets you on your feet!" , "Arrangement made with bank to pay" , "Instruction to bank for payment at regular intervals" , "rise!" .)
