I believe you are looking for the TImeout setting of the Task:

    Agreed with @koryknick

    @Mahesh7225: What time your job has been scheduled? How would you want to stop that? 4hrs after the execution or 4hrs after trying to run that job?

    Thanks!

        @Mahesh7225: If you can share more details, why would you want the job to stop at 5pm ONLY? Does it run for 3hours from 2pm-5pm?

        Also, if the requirement is to run at 2pm everyday, why don’t you go with Cron Schedule, I’m pretty sure you’re using the same, can you please confirm?
