Labels of phone numbers or emails does not match correctly to your data

Edit the file /apps/frontend/config/app.yml, take care to not add tabulations at start of each lines then modify or add the list of multivaluelabels section in the order you want

The exported csv file does not match to your needs

Edit the file /apps/frontend/modules/person/templates/listSuccess.csv.php and modify as you want (You need few skills in php language)
