A bstractGravitational domain wall solutions in gauged supergravity are often constructed within truncations that do not include vectors. As a consequence the gauge group is only a global symmetry of this truncation. The consistency of the truncation requires the restriction to solutions with vanishing Noether charge under this global symmetry, since otherwise vector fields are sourced. We show that this has interesting consequences for the orbit structure of the solutions under the global symmetries. We investigate this for CSO(p, q, r)-gaugings in various dimensions with scalar fields truncated to the SLnℝ/SOn$$ \mathrm{S}\mathrm{L}\left(n,\mathbb{R}\right)/\mathrm{SO}(n) $$ subcoset. We prove that the seed solution — which generates all other solutions using only global transformations — has a diagonal coset matrix. This means that there exists a transformation at the boundary of the geometry that diagonalises the coset matrix and that this same transformation also diagonalises the whole flow as a consequence of the vanishing charge.
