I want to add some additional comments to my shop documentation. Is this possible? For instance I want to include special settings for the vise how to prep the stock material for the job? Just basic info that will help when I come back later to the job.

Yes, you can output comments in the shop documentation. Comments can be specified for each machining operation & tool.

To add comments to a machining operation, select the operation under the Mop set, right mouse button click and select properties. Specify the comments under Comments to output.

Generate the shop document and the comments would appear next to the machining operation.

To add comments to a tool, go to create/select tool dialog specify comments under the Properties tab.

That will work. I found the tools comments, but didn't think to check the MOPS.
