Look into Custom Properties.
Every part and assembly has its set of Properties.
You can use those in Leader Text, BOM Balloon and TieleBlock.
Beside all the standard properties, you can add your own.
For example, I have Hardness and Finish in all my parts. So when I make a drawing, they will show up in Title Block. Like: Rc 48-52, Zinc Plated.
Next is Style. Default Balloon show item number. You can add a new one that show other properties, like Surface Finish. I have one the show part number. One show material.
Then let forget AutoCAD for a while. Inventor is not AutoCAD. The work flow is different, like layer and blocks. Check out what Inventor can do and how to do it. You could get the drawing to looks like its in AutoCAD faster, most of the time.
