Hi,
Can you suggest what value to used for empty value for datatype valueString

Empty values are not allowed in FHIR. If you have an empty value, you must omit the element entirely. If the element is mandatory for some reason, first submit a change request to relax the cardinality as obviously its erroneous. You can work around the cardinality using an extension such as data absent reason
