Value Indicator creation for the measure

I have a Column A in a table that has valid values and blank values. I want to create a value indicator measure in power BI. I am not sure how to do it as I am new to Power BI.

in sql we usally do,

case when column A  <> '' then Y

else N

 

So, How do we implement this in measuire in power BI? Could you please help me out? I am stuck here.
