         2.  Notwithstanding the time period specified in subsection 1, the
      state appeal board may approve or reject a claim against the state of
      five years or more, provided an error was made by the state or the
      claim involves a dispute that commenced five years or more prior.
         3. a.  Notwithstanding subsection 1, an agency that receives a
      claim that is charged to a funding source other than the general fund
      of the state that does not revert and is based on an outdated
      invoice, outdated bill for merchandise, or for services furnished to
      the state may on its own approve or deny the claim.  The agency shall
      provide the state appeal board with notification of receipt of the
      claim and action taken on the claim by the agency.  The state appeal
      board shall adopt rules setting forth the procedures and standards
      for resolution of such claims by state agencies.  Claims denied by an
      agency shall be forwarded to the state appeal board by the agency for
      further consideration, in accordance with this chapter.

      principles.
         4.  Payments authorized by the state appeal board shall be paid
      from the appropriation or fund of original certification of the
      claim.  However, if that appropriation or fund has since reverted
      under section 8.33, then such payment authorized by the state appeal
      board shall be out of any money in the state treasury not otherwise
      appropriated.
         5.  Outstanding state warrants that have been canceled pursuant to
      section 8A.519 and were charged to the general fund of the state or
      another state funding source shall be addressed as provided in
