Putin ordered data (5)
I believe the answer is:
input
'data' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'putin ordered' is the wordplay.
'ordered' indicates anagramming the letters.
'putin' is an anagram of 'INPUT'.
(Other definitions for input that I've seen before include "Signal supplied to a device" , "Contribution - data fed to computer" , "Comment, contribution" , "Data supplied to computer system" , "Contributory remark(s)" .)
