@csalinas23 you can add either using DAX or Power Query, screenshots you sharing are Power Query, add a custom column and use following expression:

 

"S" & [C]

 

and with DAX, to add a calculated column, use following

 

D = "S" & Table[C]

 

if you don't know anything about the custom column in Power Query or calculated column in DAX, you need to spend some time to learns basics of Power BI.
