Once you've added a button to a sheet in your document you simply open the properties dialog box.  Click on the Actions tab and then click the Add... button.  This will open the Add Actions dialogAdd Action.png

You have two choices for opening another qlikview document: 'Open Qlikview Document' and Open URL.  If you are deploying this document on a server you should use Open URL and then paste the URL to the document you wish to call.  Open QlikView Document works fine if you are only going to use these documents on your desktop.
