Then you would have to have a higher frequency on the scheduled flow, and then as a first step check against your table if it should continue to run or quit, and keep that more advanced logic there.

I Connect you can use what is called Cron expressions, letting you do a lot more complext stuff. But in classic, I think the method above is the way to go. I have done that at times to not email things on weekends or days off for example.
