Determining what matched in Excel Conditional Formatting

I am using the formula below in conditional formatting to say that if you find a value that matches any of the cells K1364 through K1489 then format the cells in a range yellow. It appears to be working for the most part. But I need to be 110% certain this is working as intended. A few of the rows I am not seeing what got matched. My question: Is there a way to see what matched to give a cell its conditional formatting? Perhaps I could create another column to the left of my range "matching cell" or "matching criteria" - something like that. Any expert takers?

=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(SEARCH($K$1364:$K$1489,$A2))))>0

Can you upload a sample worksheet for better understanding and testing?

Does not have to be the real worksheet but something which truly represents the real one.
