Let \(A\) be a commutative ring with identity and \(I\) a non-zero ideal. A transformation \(\alpha\) of \(A/I\) is called a generalized affine transformation of \(A/I\) if there exist \(u,a\in A\) such that for every \(x\in I\): \((x+I)\alpha=(u+I)(x+I)+(a+I)\). The monoid \(\text{Gaff}(A/I)\) of all such transformations is studied, in particular, Green's relations, regular elements, idempotents are investigated. It is shown that \(\text{Gaff}(A/I)\) is an epigroup if \(A\) is an integral domain and \(I\) is a product of powers of invertible maximal ideals.
